Fast atom bombardment (FAB) has been used for mass spectrometric characterization of oligomeric cyanines and squaraines of the indole series which are linked by different aromatic spacers. Markedly different results were obtained for the oligomers and for the corresponding monomers. In addition to the expected mono-anions and mono-cations, ions of high relative abundance were detected which can only be explained on the basis of FAB-induced chemical reactions of the initial oligomers. Formation of allenes, hydrogenation and dehydrogenation, respectively, is characteristic for this class of compounds under FAB-conditions.

Abstract An acetylenic dicarboxylic acid, 5-decynedioic acid, has been isolated from human urine. The structure was determined by mass spectrometry of several derivatives, and by infrared spectroscopy. On osmium tetroxide oxidation, a vic-diketone was formed, the mass spectrum of which established the position of the triple bond between carbon atoms 5 and 6. Mass spectrometric evidence for the presence of a small amount of the isomeric 4-decynedioic acid was also obtained. The 24-h excretion of these acids is 0.01-0.1 mmol for healthy adults on a regular diet.

Native pig pepsin was analysed by negative ion electrospray mass spectrometry in order to rationalize anomalies between the published sequences. Outstanding variations in otherwise identical sequences indicate that amino acid residue 242 is either Asp or Tyr, and in some determinations an additional Ile is inserted at position 230. Mass spectrometric evidence is consistent with the presence, in the native enzyme, of two variants in comparable abundance, with either Asp or Tyr at residue 242. There is no evidence for the additional Ile at position 230.

Abstract Fast atom bombardment (FAB) mass spectrometry (MS) is used to characterize the γ-hydroxy carboxylic acid (γ-HCa) formed from base hydrolyzed γ-lactone at room temperature. Acidification of this base hydrolyzed solution reconverts the γ-HCa back to γ-lactone. Mass shift differences between tetramethylammonium (TMA+) and Na+ ion-pairs with the anionic γ-HCarboxylate(–) (γ-HC(–)) are used to confirm molecular ion identifications. FAB ionization was required to provide mass characterization of the γ-HCa. Electron ionization (El) MS of the γ-HCa was unsuccessful and reconverted γ-HCa back to γ-lactone because of complete thermally induced dehydration. The present paper suggests structures for El fragmentation that support the molecular structure of γ-lactone.
