Notes:
Electron ionization (EI) spectra and both positive and negative chemical ionization (CI) spectra have been obtained for four isoquinolinium ylides and two pyridinium ylides. Electron transfer reactions dominate the CI mass specra. The base peak in negative chemical ionization is the [M]-· ion, formed by electron capture. In the positive methane CI spectra the molecular ion, [M]+·, is relatively more intense than [MH]+ showing electron transfer to be the main positive ionization process. In the positive ammonia CI spectra, proton transfer to give [MH]+ is the main ionization process, but electron transfer is also observed. The EI spectra show fragmentations in which the aromatic nitrogen moiety retains the charge and fragmentation is by loss of radicals or small neutral molecules from the side-chains. Radical driven reactions are proposed to explain these spectra.
