The mass spectra of trimethylsilyl (TMS) ethers of 2-methoxyphenols show abundant [M–30]+˙ ions originating from consecutive loss of two methyl radicals. This is illustrated by comparison of the accurate mass-measured and linked-scan spectra of the TMS derivatives of 2-methoxyphenol (guaiacol), 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde (vanillin) and 3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-2-propenoic acid methyl ester (ferulic acid methyl ester) with those of the TMS derivatives of phenol, 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-propenoic acid methyl ester (p-coumaric acid methyl ester), 3-methoxyphenol and 4-methoxyphenol. This distinctive ortho effect is valuable in the identification of isomeric phenolic compounds. In the spectra of the TMS derivatives of 2-ethoxyphenol and 2-propoxyphenol the sequential loss of two radicals is less pronounced, because elimination of the side-chain and a methyl group with rearrangement and hydrogen migration is competitive. 相似文献

The major fragmentation pattern obsrved in the mass spectra of simple alkane- and arylsulfonyl chlorides may be rationalized by loss of a chlorine atom from the molecular ion, followed by loss of SO2 with concomitant carbocation formation. The mass spectra of α-mesyl sulfonyl chlorides and napthalenesulfonyl chlorides exhibit ions resulting from chlorine atom migration to the α-carbon atom with concomitant loss of SO2. The mass spectra of α-mesyl sulfonyl chlorides also show ions which involve chlorine atom migration to the β-sulfonyl group. 相似文献

The mass spectra of 2,2′-anhydrouridine, 2,2′-anhydrothymidine and 2,2′-anhydro-4-thiouridine are reported. The acetyl, trifluoroacetyl, trityl, pivaloyl and trimethylsilyl ether derivatives were also studied. Deuterium labeling in acetyl and trimethylsilyl groups aided characterization of many ions in the spectra, as well as helping to clarify hydrogen migration processes. The anhydronucleosides and their derivatives are readily distinguished from natural nucleosides by the presence of an ion containing the base moiety plus the anhydro-ring plus one hydrogen atom from the rest of the molecule. As for natural nucleosides the [base + H]+ and [base + 2H]+ ions are usually prominent, but in contrast to natural nucleosides, ions characteristic of the sugar moiety do not retain the 2′-oxygen atom (i.e. the oxygen atom of the anhydro-ring). The mass spectra of deuterium labeled derivatives suggest a test for the presence of a 3′-O-acetyl function (the O-acetyl group is lost from the molecular ion much more readily from the 3′- than from the 5′-carbon atom). The trimethylsilyl derivatives showed evidence in their mass spectra for migration of trimethylsilyl groups in addition to hydrogen atoms. 相似文献

Mass spectra of trimethylsilyl (TMS) derivatives of long chain dicarboxylic acids, hydroxy acids, cyano acids, and terminal diols, dithiols and diamines have been examined. A number of fragmentation pathways involving rearrangement of partial or intact TMS groups between the termini or remote points in the chain have been determined, using deuterium and carbon-13 labeling, and high resolution mass spectrometry. Knowledge of the occurrence of functional group migrations of this type is essential to the correct interpretation of mass spectra of TMS derivatives, which are now in wide use in mass spectrometry and gas chromatography. These data in addition provide further evidence for the general ability of remote functional groups to interact, by winding or coiling of long chains. A number of interesting doubly-charged ions are reported, in which the charges are reported, in which the charges are located at opposite ends of long chains, and for which no singly-charged counterparts are observed. 相似文献

Arachidonic acid is metabolized by hepatic and renal cortical microsomes in the presence of NADPH to vicinal dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acids as some of the major metabolites. Other polyunsaturated, long-chain fatty acids might be metabolized to vicinal dihydroxy acids (1,2-diols) in the same way. To facilitate identification of 1,2-diols in biological samples, a series of unsaturated 1,2-diols were synthesized from linoleic, alpha-linolenic and arachidonic acid and the electron-ionization mass spectra of cyclic methane- and n-butaneboronic ester derivatives and of trimethylsilyl (TMS) ether derivatives were compared. The TMS ether derivatives gave rise to weak molecular ions but prominent informative fragmentation ions were formed by alpha-cleavage as well as cleavage between the carbons with the TMS ethers. The TMS ether derivative of methyl 15,16-dihydroxy-9,12-octadecadienoate had a considerably larger carbon value than the other C18 diols, while the cyclic boronates were poorly separated on gas chromatography. The methane- and n-butaneboronic acid derivatives showed strong molecular ions and a characteristic but not very informative fragmentation, although the position of the hydroxyls could be deduced from one or two fragments formed by alpha-cleavage. Linoleic and alpha-linolenic acid are metabolized in the rabbit to many polar products by hepatic and renal cortical microsomes and NADPH. 12,13-Dihydroxy-9-octadecenoic acid and other metabolites of linoleic acid were identified by gas chromatography--mass spectrometry. 相似文献

The low resolution 70 eV mass spectra of the TMS (Trimethylsilyl) derivatives of eight naturally occurring hydroxy- and/or methoxycinnamic acids are presented in detail. The TMS derivatives studied are I, of o-coumaric acid; II, of m-coumaric acid; III, of p-coumaric acid; IV, of isoferulic acid; V, of ferulic acid; VI, of 3,4-dimethoxycinnamic acid; VII, of sinapic acid; VIII, of caffeic acid; Ia to Va, VIIa, of the corresponding methyl esters; and VIa, methyl 3,4-dimethoxycinnamate. The derivatives studied show a high degree of stability under conditions of electron-impact. The major fragmentation processes for the free acid TMS derivatives begin with methyl radical loss from either the ester or ring TMS group. The spectra of the methyl ester TMS derivatives have enabled the site of initial methyl loss to be determined. Accurate mass measurements and analysis of the second field-free region metastable peaks provide support for suggested fragmentation schemes. The spectra are sufficiently different to permit identification except between compounds IV and V (and IVa and Va) where the major fragmentation process involves a common ion, thought to be the silicon analogue of an acetonide. 相似文献

The molecular ions of N-trifluoroacetyl α-amino acid trimethylsilyl esters exhibit a characteristic elimination of CO2, in contrast to other amino acid derivatives and apparently caused by migration of the ester trimethylsilyl group to the oxygen atom of the N-trifluoroacetyl function. Fragmentation of the [M – CO2]+˙ ions gives rise to a series of intense peaks, especially for the aliphatic amino acid derivatives. In the case of the isomers leucine and isoleucine, different base peaks are formed for the 20 eV spectra. Amino acids which can easily split off a group in their β-position possibly fragment by synchronous elimination of CO2 and this group. With serine, threonine and cysteine a concurrent ester silyl migration to the oxygen of the β-function is observed, accompanied by the expulsion of CO2. 相似文献

Picolinyl ester derivatives of common fatty acids can be readily desorbed by fast atom bombardment (FAB) as positive ions and then collisionally activated. Collisionally activated spectra of the (M + H)+ ions of the derivatives reveal that structurally informative remote-charge-site fragmentations occur. The presence of substitutents such as double bond, branch points, cyclopropane rings, hydroxy groups, and epoxy rings interrupts the fragmentation process in such a way that the substituent can be identified and its location on the alkyl chain can be determined. This method is also applicable to the picolinyl esters of short-chain fatty acids and to the analysis of mixtures of fatty acid derivatives. The approach is advantageous becasue the epicolinyl ester derivatives are also amenable to gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Therefore, the FAB-MS/MS approach developed here is complementary to GC/MS. 相似文献

The 25 eV mass spectra of the trialkylsilyl (R = Et, Pr, Bu) derivatives of several alcohols, steroids and cannabinoids are compared with those of the corresponding trimethylsilyl (TMS) derivatives. Abundant ions produced by elimination of one of the alkyl groups characterize most of the spectra. Although the presence of such ions is advantageous in certain cases, such as for single ion monitoring studies, the spectra usually contain fewer ions of diagnostic use than the spectra of corresponding TMS derivatives. Successive elimination of CnH2n fragments is also a feature of these spectra. 相似文献

Derivatization procedures for the detection of beta(2)-agonists by gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric analysis 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
An evaluation of derivatization procedures for the detection of beta(2)-agonists is presented. The study was performed with the beta(2)-agonists bambuterol, clenbuterol, fenoterol, formoterol, salbutamol, salmeterol and terbutaline. Different derivatizating agents were employed, aiming to obtain derivatives with high selectivity to be used in the gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric analysis of beta(2)-agonists in biological samples. Trimethylsilylation was compared with different agents and the role of some catalysts was evaluated. Acylation, combined trimethylsilylation and acylation, and the formation of cyclic methylboronates were also studied. Sterical hindrance caused by different substituents at the nitrogen atom of the beta-ethanolamine lateral chain of beta(2)-agonist molecules is mainly responsible for differences in the abundances of the derivatives obtained. The use of catalysts produces an increase in the derivatization yield, especially for compounds with low steric hindrance (substituents with primary and secondary carbon atoms). The formation of trimethylsilyl (TMS) ethers is not influenced by structural molecular differences when only hydroxy groups are involved in derivatization. Combined trimethylsilylation and acylation showed that compounds with a secondary carbon atom linked to the nitrogen atom form mainly N-TFA-O-TMS derivatives, with a small amount of N-TMS-O-TMS derivatives. Compounds with tert-butyl substituents at the amino group (bambuterol, salbutamol and terbutaline) formed O-TMS derivatives as the main products, although a limited amount of trifluoroacylation at the nitrogen atom also occurred. Cyclic methylboronates were formed with bambuterol, clenbuterol, formoterol, salbutamol and salmeterol. Owing to hydroxy substituents in unsuitable positions for ring formation, this procedure was not effective for fenoterol and terbutaline. Mass spectra of different derivatives and tentative fragmentation profiles are also shown. For screening purpose (e.g. sports drug testing), derivatization with MSTFA or BSTFA alone is recommended as a comprehensive derivatization technique for beta(2)-agonists owing to minimal by-product formation; formation of cyclic methylboronates can be useful for confirmation purposes. Detection limits were obtained for the TMS and cyclic methylboronate derivatives using the derivatizing reagents MSTFA and trimethylboroxine, respectively. For most of the compounds, lower detection limits were found for the TMS derivatives. 相似文献

It is shown that the use of dimethylformamide dimethylacetal for the derivatization of analytes in gas chromatography/mass spectrometry cannot be restricted by the known conversion of carboxylic acids, phenols, and thiols into their methyl esters (ethers), as well as by the conversion of non-volatile amino acids (and C-amino compounds of other classes) into their dimethylaminomethylene derivatives. The application of this reagent to the derivatization of hydrazine derivatives and volatile carbonyl-containing analytes is considered. In the last case, the reaction proceeds selectively via CH2 and/or CH3 groups in the α-position to the carbonyl fragment. The principal predestination of the derivatization of such analytes is their characterization by differences of gas-chromatographic retention indices (ΔRI) of reaction products and initial substrates. The ranges of variation of such increments, ΔRI, appeared to be different for different subgroups of carbonyl compounds; this allowed us to determine their structures more precisely. The mass spectra of C-dimethylaminomethylene derivatives of some carbonyl compounds, preferably 2-substituted 1-methyl- and 1-aryl-3-(dimethylamino) prop-2-en-1-ones, revealed intense [M–17] peaks. The appearance of these signals can be explained by the migration of a hydrogen atom and the formation of [М–ОН]+ ions. 相似文献

The mass spectra of bis-trimethylsilyl derivatives of simple boronic acids have been determined and found to contain two rearrangement ions involving loss of MeBO. Mechanisms based largely on 1, 3 shifts to electron deficient silicon and boron are presented to explain the formation of these ions. The mechanisms are supported by deuterium labelling experiments and metastable transtions. 相似文献

Electron impact mass spectra of the trimethylsilyl derivatives of a series of flavonoid aglycones and chalcones are reported. The spectra show prominent ions arising from fragmentation of the trimethylsilyl (TMS) groups. Inter-actions between adjacent TMS groups, and between TMS groups in the 3- or 5-position (6′-position for the chalcones) and the C-ring carbonyl, yield structurally significant ions. Few fragments associated with the retro-Diels-Alder cleavage of the C-ring characteristic of the underivatized compounds, are observed. The TMS derivatives thus provide complementary information for the identification of flavonoid aglycones and chalcones in biological systems. 相似文献

Mass spectra of allenic compounds substituted with a hydrocarbon chain bearing a heteroatomic group (hydroxy, alcoxy, halogen, dialkylamino) or a phenyl in the γ position exhibits a strong peak corresponding to the loss of C2H4 (28a.m.u.) from the molecular ion. This is commonly the base peak of the spectra and due to a McLafferty type transfer of the heteroatom or phenyl group to the central allenic carbon atom. The methyl group shows a lower migratory aptitude in such a process. This type of fragmentation involving the migration of heteroatomic groups is not observed in the spectra of γ-halogen and γ-hydroxyketones, alkenes, alkynes or arenes and seems to be characteristic of the allenic linkage. A nucleophilic attack by heteroatom group (or phenyl) on the central allenic carbon atom is proposed. 相似文献

Mass spectral fragmentation patterns of dimethylsilyl (DMS) ethers of primary unbranched, branched, and secondary unbranched aliphatic alcohols in the C5 to C10 range are compared with those of the corresponding trimethylsilyl (TMS) derivatives. Unlike their TMS analogues, DMS ethers of primary alcohols exhibit pronounced rupture of the C? C bond adjacent to the oxygen atom within the alkyl moiety (loss of an alkyl radical R) in marked preference to cleavage within the silyl substituent (loss of CH3). Within this class of compounds, complementary preparation of DMS derivatives can therefore be used to establish or to confirm the site, and thus the primary nature of the hydroxyl group, whereas preparation of TMS ethers may be of advantage in deducing molecular size. For the derivatives of secondary alcohols this diagnostically useful difference in fragmentation behaviour is not observed. 相似文献

Positionally isomeric 2-(2-quinolinyl)-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-dione mono- and disulfonic acids give rise to similar electrospray ionization (ESI) and atmosphere pressure chemical ionization (APCI) mass spectra, which show very abundant MH(+) ions and negligible fragmentation. The MH(+) ions of these isomeric acids exhibit notably different behavior under collision-induced dissociation (CID) conditions. The acids with a sulfonic group at position 8' in the quinoline moiety, adjacent to the N-atom, exhibit highly abundant [MH - H(2)SO(3)](+) ions (m/z 272 for the mono- and m/z 352 for the disulfonic acids), which are of lower abundance in the CID spectra of isomers with the SO(3)H group at other positions, remote from the nitrogen atom. The latter isomers undergo efficient eliminations of SO(3) and HSO(3). The isomeric diacids with one SO(3)H group at position 4 of the indene-1,3(2H)-dione moiety, adjacent to one of the carbonyl groups, undergo highly efficient elimination of H(2)O. Mechanistic pathways, involving interactions between adjacent groups, are proposed for the above regiospecific fragmentations. Pronounced different behavior has been also observed in negative ion tandem mass spectrometric measurements of the sulfonic acids. The distinctive behavior of the isomeric acids was strongly pronounced when the measurements were performed with an ion trap mass spectrometer (LCQ), and much less so with a triple-stage quadrupole instrument (TSQ). 相似文献

Abstract The chemical ionization mass spectra of fluorescamine and fluorescamine - amino acid derivatives have been studied using methane and ammonia as reagent gases. Major ions in the spectra are protonated molecular ions, adduct ions and ions formed by loss of an oxygen atom. Fluorescamine, 4-phenyl-spiro[furan-2(3H),1′-phthalan]3,3′-dione, is a powerful new fluorogenic reagent for assaying primary amines.1 and EI2 and EI3 mass spectrometric investigations of fluorescamine and its derivatives were carried out. Our present study reports the CI mass spectral analysis of fluorescamine and some of its amino acid derivatives. 相似文献

High resolution mass spectrometry, metastable defocusing and deuterium labeling of trimethylsilyl (TMS) ethers have been used to study the electron-impact induced fragmentations of o-, m- and p-hydroxyalkylphenones and their TMS ether derivatives. These derivatives have proven useful in contrasting the fragmentation patterns of singly- and doubly-charged ions because of the competing fragmentations: α-cleavage and a McLafferty rearrangement from the ketone moiety and methyl cleavage from the TMS group. A proximity effect was responsible for a markedly increased methyl radical loss from the o-TMS ether. This fragmentation was minor with the m- and p-isomers. Significantly intense doubly-charged ions were formed from ketonic cleavage and by the loss of a TMS methyl radical. The sequence of fragmentation depended on the size of the alkyl group attached to the ketone carbonyl. There was no evidence found for a McLafferty rearrangement occurring from the doubly-charged molecular ion of the TMS ethers of the hydroxyalkylphenones but the rearrangement occurred from the doubly-charge molecular ion of bis-3-(1-oxopentyl)-4-hydroxy-phenyl-methane and, of course, from the singly charged [M]+. The bis-p-hydroxyphenylmethane derivatives were studied in an effort to increase the intensity of the doubly-charged ions as it was expected that the charges would be separated by a longer distance. 相似文献

The secondary α-acetylbenzyl and α-benzoylbenzyl cations, as well as their tertiary analogues, have been generated in a mass spectrometer by electron impact induced fragmentation of the corresponding α-bromoketones. These ions belong to the interesting family of destabilized α-acylcarbenium ions. While primary α-acylcarbenium ions appear to be unstable, the secondary and tertiaiy ions exhibit the usual behaviour of stable entities in a potential energy well. This can be attributed to a ‘push-pull’ substitution at the carbenium ion centre by an electron-releasing phenyl group and an electron-withdrawing acyl substituent. The characteristic unimolecular reaction of the metastaible secondary and tertiary α-acylbenzyl cations is the elimination of CO by a rearrangement reaction involving a 1,2-shift of a methyl group and a phenyl group, respectively. The loss of CO is accompanied by a very large kinetic energy release, which gives rise to broad and dish-topped peaks for this process in the mass-analysed ion kinetic energy spectra of the corresponding ions. This behaviour is attributed to the rigid critical configuration of a corner-protonatei cyclopropanone derivative and a bridged phenonium ion derivative, respectively, for this reaction. For the tertiary α-acetyl-α-methylbenzyl cations, it has been shown by deuterium labelling and by comparison of collisional activation spectra that these ions equilibrate prior to decomposition with their ‘protomer’ derivatives formed by proton migration from the α-methyl substituent to the carbonyl group and to the benzene ring. 相似文献

The mechanism of dissociation of neutral methyl stearate and its hydrogen atom adduct was investigated by charge inversion mass spectrometry using an alkali metal target. Migrations of functional groups in fatty acid ester ions are often observed during the dissociation of the cations in collisionally activated dissociation (CAD). In the charge inversion spectrum, the main dissociation channels of methyl stearate molecule are the loss of a CH3 radical or a H atom. To identify the source of the CH3 radical and the H atom, the charge inversion spectra of partially deuterated methyl stearate (C17H35COOCD3) were measured. The loss of CH3 occurred through elimination from the methoxy methyl group and that of H occurred through elimination from the hydrocarbon chain of the fatty acid group. In the protonated ester, a simultaneous loss of CH3 (from the methoxy methyl group) and a H atom or a H2 molecule was observed. The charge inversion process gave the dissociation fragments with almost no migration of atoms. Only a few peaks that were structure sensitive were observed in the higher mass region in the charge inversion spectra; these peaks were associated with dissociations of energy-selected neutral species, unlike the case of CAD spectra in which they result from dissociation of ions. Charge inversion mass spectrometry with alkali metal targets provided direct information on the dissociation mechanism of methyl stearate and its hydrogen atom adduct without any migration of functional groups. 相似文献
