Abstract

Abstract The expulsion of neutral fragments of masses 27 and 28 from metastable [M [BOND] OH]+ ions derived from 2-nitrotoluene has been observed. The relative abundances of the resulting fragment ions, together with the kinetic energy released in each process, has been compared with similar fragmentation of [C 7 H 6 NO]+ ions derived from other precursor molecules. In this way, the nature of the neutral fragments and the structure of ...
