The mass spectra of mononucleotides and their metal adducts Na, K, Mg, Ca, Ni, Co, Cu, and Zn of guanosine 5′-monophosphate (5′-GMP) as well as H, Na, and Mg of adenosine 5′-monophosphate (5′-AMP) and H and Ni of inosine 5′-monophosphate (5′-IMP) have been obtained in low concentrations of matrix in water using continuous-flow fast atom bombardment. The results indicate that this technique is suitable for the analysis of these complexes in aqueous media and yields spectra that are highly characteristic of the compounds analyzed. Parent-molecular ions and structurally significant fragment ions are observed for all compounds studied and the different binding sites for the metal on the nucleotides can be isolated from the fragment ions. Experimental parameters influencing the quality of the spectra such as flow rate, matrix concentration, matrix nature, and analyte concentration have been studied and optimized. For the thirteen compounds studied, it appears that continuous-flow FAB is superior to conventional FAB and that good quality spectra can be obtained with as little as 0.5% of added matrix thus minimizing spectral interferences. Keywords: continuous flow FAB, FAB MS, mass spectrometry, nucleotides, metal-nucleotides.
