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.

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.

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.
