Loss of methyl from [H2CC(OH)?CH3]+˙ ions prepared by electron impact ionization of unstable 2-hydroxypropene

Unstable 2-hydroxpropene was prepared by retro-Diels-Alder decomposition of 5-exo-methyl-5-norbornenol at 800°C/2 × 10^?6 Torr. The ionization energy of 2-hydroxypropene was measured as 8.67±0.05 eV. Formation of [C₂H₃O]⁺ and [CH₃]⁺ ions originating from different parts of the parent ion was examined by means of ¹³C and deuterium labelling. Threshold-energy [H₂C?C(OH)? CH₃]^+˙ ions decompose to CH₃CO⁺+CH₃^˙ with appearance energy AE(CH₃CO⁺) = 11.03 ± 0.03 eV. Higher energy ions also form CH₂?C?OH⁺ + CH₃ with appearance energy AE(CH₂?C?OH⁺) = 12.2–12.3 eV. The fragmentation competes with hydrogen migration between C(1) and C(3) in the parent ion. [C₂H₃O]⁺ ions containing the original methyl group and [CH₃]⁺ ions incorporating the former methylene and the hydroxyl hydrogen atom are formed preferentially, compared with their corresponding counterparts. This behaviour is due to rate-determining isomerization [H₂C?C(OH)? CH₃]^+˙ →[CH₃COCH₃]^+˙, followed by asymmetrical fragmentation of the latter ions. Effects of internal energy and isotope substitution are discussed.

On the Preparation of Dimercapto(methyl)Sulfonium Salts [CH₃S(SH)₂]⁺ AsF₆^? and [CH₃S(SH)₂]⁺SbCl₆^? and the Bis(chlorothio)methylsulfonium Salts [CH₃S(SCI)₂]⁺ AsF₆^? and [CH₃S(SCI)₂]⁺ SbCl₆^? The preparation of the dimercapto(methyl)sulfonium salts [CH₃S(SH)₂]⁺ AsF₆^? and [CH₃S(SH)₂]⁺SbCl₆^? from [CH₃SCl₂]⁺ salts and H₂S at 195 K is reported. The salts are stable below 210 K. They are characterized by additional Raman spektroscopic measurements of the isotopic labelled cations [CH₃S(SD)₂]⁺, [CH₃S(³⁴SH)₂]⁺ and [CH₃S(₃₄SD)₂]⁺. The dimercapto(methyl)sulfonium salts are transfered into bis(chlorthio)methylsulfonium salts by reaction with Cl₂ at 195 K.
