Abstract: | On the basis of unimolecular and collisionally activated decompositions, as well as their charge stripping behaviour, C7H8]+˙ and C7H8]2+ ions from a variety of precursors have been studied. In particular, structural characteristics of molecular ions of toluene, cycloheptatriene, norborna-2,5-diene and quadricyclane have been compared to those of C7H8]+˙ and C7H8]2+ rearrangement fragment ions obtained from n-butylbenzene, 2-phenylethanol and n-pentylbenzene. Severe interferences from C7H7]2+˙ ion fragmentations have been observed and rationalized. |
