II.* MASS SPECTROMETRY By D. G. HAWTHORN,E~$ and Q. N. PORTER^ [Manzlscript received March 6, 19671 The high-resolution mass spectra of some derivatives of naphtho[l,S-be]- thiophen have been analysed. The base peak in the spectra is usually the naphtho- [1,8-bclthienylium cation (mle 171) or one of its substitution products; this emphasizes the stability of this species. Structures are suggested for most of the other ions observed in the spectra. INTRODUUTION In Part I, which dealt with the synthesis of naphtho[l,8-bclthiophen derivatives, the mass spectra of the 2-methyl-2H- (I; R = CH,) and 2-phenyl-2H- (I; R = Ph) compounds were briefly described. It was suggested that in each case the cleavage shown gave the ion of mle 171, for which the naphthothienylium cation structure ac was proposed. (1) ac; m/e 171 In this paper we present a complete analysis of the spectra of these compounds, and of some related naphtho[l,8-bclthiophen derivatives. For reasons outlined in Part I of this series, it is not possible to write structures for fragment ions from aromatic and heteroaromatic molecules with the confidence with which this can be done for many less-aromatic systems. In writing ionic structures to formalize the observed spectra, the following principles have been used: (i) Where the formation of an odd-electron system is involved, the ion is, if possible, written as a radical cation derivable from an aromatic system.

Liquid secondary ion mass spectrometry (LSIMS) and collision-induced dissociation (CID) were used for the characterization of sulfonamide derivatives of meso-tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP). The spectra obtained using LSIMS show abundant molecular ions and fragment ions from losses of the sulfonamide moieties. The main fragmentation observed in the LSI mass spectra and in the CID spectra of the protonated or cationized molecules involves the loss of one sulfonamide group. In addition, in the CID spectra of these compounds the fragment ions formed by the elimination of two, three and/or four sulfonamide groups are also observed. The CID spectra of the protonated or cationized molecules of these derivatives do not display the ions formed by the cleavage of the S - N bond which have been reported for other sulfonamide compounds. The LSI mass spectra and CID spectra of sulfonamide derivatives of meso-tetraphenylporphyrin provide an easy and reliable means of identification of the number and nature of sulfonamide groups in the porphyrinic ring.

Electron ionisation (EI) and fast atom bombardment (FAB) mass spectral fragmentations of nine 2,4-(and 2,1-) disubstituted o-( m- and p-)nitro-(chloro- and bromo-)-2-thiocytosinium halides are investigated. Fragmentation pathways, whose elucidation is assisted by accurate mass measurements and metastable transitions [EI-mass spectrometry (MS)], as well as FAB/collision-induced dissociation (CID) mass spectra measurements are discussed. The correlations between the abundances of the (C11H10N4SO2)+1–3; (C11H10N3SCl)+4–6 and (C11H10N3SBr)+7–9 ions and the selected fragment ions (EI-MS), as well as (C18H16N5SO4)+1–3; (C18H16N3SCl2)+4–6 and (C18H16N3SBr2) + 7–9 ions and the selected ions (C7H6NO2)+1–3; (C7H6Cl)+ 4–6; (C7H6Br)+ 7–9 (FAB-MS) are discussed. The data obtained can be used for distinguishing isomers.

The mass spectra of a series of nuclear substituted styryl ketones with the structure[Formula: see text]and several relaTed compounds have been determined. The major fragmentation pathways include such processes as an aromatic substitution reaction occurring in the molecular ion as well as the McLafferty rearrangement. Only one of the two possible α-cleavages at the carbonyl function was observed. The major decomposition processes are outlined and compared with the recent results of a study on α,β-unsaturated aliphatic ketones. Mechanistic pathways are suggested for the formation of the major fragment ions.

Electron impact mass spectra are reported for the hydrazones of 3-methyl-2-benzothiazolinone (1), of 4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-chloro-3-methylbenzo-2-thiazolinones (2, 3, 4, and 5) and of 3-methyl-naphtho[2,1-d]-2-thiazolinone (6), as well as for 2-hydrazinobenzothiazole (7), for 4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-chloro-2-hydrazinobenzothiazoles (8, 9, 10, and 11) and for 2-hydrazinonaphtho[2,1-d]thiazole (12). The results obtained in the two series are compared. The 2-hydrazone and 3-methyl-benzo-2-thiazolinone and its derivatives all form a base peak corresponding to the molecular ion; fragmentation proceeds mainly by successive losses of·NH2, HCN, HCN, and then CS. Initial losses of N2H2, NH·, and NH3 are minor fragmentation routes.In the case of 2-hydrazinobenzothiazole and its derivatives, the base peak is still that of the molecular ion; however, the relative proportions of the various fragment ions vary with the position of sampling probe inside the apparatus. Thus it is concluded that the observed mass spectrum is that of a mixture of the possible hydrazone-hydrazine tautomers. The principal fragmentations involve the initial loss of NH3 (leading to a stabilized ion), of NH2· (probably from the hydrazone form), and of N2H2.(Journal Translation)

Abstract The electron ionization (El) and chemical ionization (CI) mass spectra of 12 representative testosterone esters were examined to explore the various analytical options available for identification and confirmation of the esters. Using El, a number of fragment ions indicated the identification of the testosterone moiety, but structural confirmation of the individual esters often required the observance of the molecular ion at very low relative abundance ratios. The acceptable analytical method involved CI/tandem mass spectrometry based on the production of the 2 generic product ions derived from the protonated molecule ion.

The chemical ionization mass spectra of a series of tricyclic flavanoid compounds have been examined using isobutane and hydrogen as reagent gases and the fragmen- tation modes have been correlated systematically in terms of structure. The technique produces simple fragmentation patterns and abundant metastable ions. The use of deuterium as reagent gas reveals the influence of extraneous water on the spectra and facilitates the interpretation of the fragmentation pathways. The fragment ions appear to arise from isomeric progenitors protonated at different sites in the molecules.

In this paper, the application of new substituted 2,6-bis((benzoyl-R)amino)pyridine (R = H, 4-Me, and 4-NMe2) derivatives for the recovery of copper(II), nickel(II), cobalt(II), and zinc(II) ions from aqueous solutions was described. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), electrospray ionization high-resolution mass spectrometry (ESI HRMS), and tandem mass spectrometry methods (HCD MS/MS). Three different derivatives of 2,6-bis((benzoyl-R)amino)pyridine were used as carriers in membrane processes and as extractants in classic solvent extraction. In each case, the single derivative recovery was carried out on a model solution that contained only one type of metal ions. Spectrophotometry studies were performed to determine the stability constants of the complexes formed by the synthesized species with analyzed metals ions. The results obtained indicate that the synthesized compounds form stable complexes with Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), and Zn(II) ions and can be used in both types of studied recovery processes. However, the effectiveness of the synthesized compounds in the recovery of metal ions depends both on the structure of compounds and properties of metals as well as on their concentration.

Neutralization-reionization mass spectrometry (NRMS) was applied to the generation and characterization of low-valence Sn(I) derivatives. The observation of recovery signals in the NR mass spectra of RSn+ ions (R=H, Cl, Br, CH3, C2H, C6H5) demonstrated that their neutral counterparts are stable species in the gas-phase with a lifetime of at least 5 μs. According to quantum chemical calculations, a favorable Franck–Condon factor may contribute to the stability of RSn neutrals generated in the NR event. The experimental results for tin acetylide and phenyltin are the first examples of the generation of these previously unknown molecular species.
