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.
