Abstract The chemical ionization (CI) mass spectra of 15 important organophosphorus insecticides and 14 of their major metabolites are discussed in relation to the effect of chemical structure on fragmentation patterns. The fragments obtained with CI are sometimes quite different from those formed on electron impact and, in general, simpler spectra are obtained with CI.

Reagent gas systems are described for use in a single-source chemical ionization mass spectrometer which permit charge exchange mass spectra to be obtained using CS2+•(∼10.2 eV), COS+•(11.2 eV), Xe+•(∼12.5 eV), CO+•(14.0 eV), N2+•(15.3 eV), and Ar+• (15.8 eV) (recombination energies in brackets) as the major reactant ions. Using these reagent gas systems the charge exchange mass spectra of cyclopentane, 1-pentene, 3-methyl-l-butene, 2-methyl-l-butene, 2-pentene, and 2-methyl-2-butene have been obtained. It is shown that these spectra can be used to construct breakdown graphs which adequately depict the relative energy dependences of the fragmentation pathways and rationalize the 70 eV electron impact mass spectra.

Abstract The chemical ionization (CI) mass spectra with methane as the reagent gas are reported for 25 N-methylcarbamato insecticides or related compounds. The [M + 1]+ ions in the CI spectra are larger than the parent ions in the corresponding electron impact (EI) spectra of N-methyl- and N,N-dimethylcarbamates, but the contrary is true with N-hydroxymethylcarbamates. CI but not EI fragmentation of substituted- phenyl N-hydroxymethylcarbamates [ROC(0)NHCH2OH] appears to involve a 4-membered [ROC(0)NHCH2]+ intermediate which rearranges to give a [ROCH2]+ fragment. Other fragmentations unique to the CI spectra are also discussed.

Abstract The mass spectra of some butyrophenoncs are presented. Electron impact ionization and chemical ionization with isobutane as the reagent gas are compared. The chemical ionization spectra show the quasi molecular ion (M + H)+ to be the most abundant ion. Important fragments in the electron impact spectra are discussed for easy determination of other similar compounds.

The amino sugar 3-acetamido-3,6-dideoxy-4-O-methyl-L-glucose has been characterized in the O-polysaccharide obtained from the bacterial lipopolysaccharide of Vibrio anguillarum. The identity of 1,2,5-tri-O-acetyl-3-acetamido-3,6-dideoxy-4-O-methyl-L-glucitol has been established by electron-impact and chemical-ionization mass spectrometry and by a labeling procedure.
