The negative-ion mass spectra of thioglycollic esters and S- alkylthioglycollic acids exhibit ions produced by simple cleavage and/or cleavage with hydrogen rearrangement. Similar spectra of arylsulphinylamines show pronounced molecular ions together with simple cleavage fragments. No skeletal-rearrangement fragments are present in the negative-ion spectra, in marked contrast with those observed in the corresponding positive-ion spectra.

The mass spectra of representative series of simple alkyl acetoacetates, alkyl acetothioacetates, and some unsaturated esters derived from unsaturated alcohols or phenols are reported and discussed. The fragmentation schemes have been established by high resolution measurements, appropriate metastable ions, and by deuterium and 18O labelling. Many of the spectra show significant skeletal rearrangement fragments arising from either loss of carbon monoxide or carbon dioxide.

The negative-ion mass spectra of aromatic azoxy compounds, nitrones, and N-oxides exhibit pronounced molecular ions and simple fragmentation processes. No skeletal-rearrangement fragments are produced upon electron impact, in marked contrast to those exhibited in the positive-ion spectra of these compounds.

Molecular anions derived from Ar-CH=NOH systems fragment by the process [MI- → [M-H2O]- to yield pronounced peaks corresponding to [ArCN]-. Molecular anions from Ar(CH2)nC(NOH)Ph (n = 0-2) also eliminate H2O, but the mechanisms are often complex. Possible mechanisms for some of these eliminations are suggested after consideration of the + E spectra of non-decomposing [M?H2O]- ions. A characteristic cyclization/retro process of o-O2NC6H4-CH=CH-C(NOH)R molecular anions produces CHO-CR=N-O- as the major product anion.
