Atmospheric pressure chemical ionization tandem mass spectrometry was used to study the gas-phase reactions of protonated a-and b-aspartame. The results show that under collision-induced dissociation conditions, these ions undergo dehydration to form anhydro derivatives in addition to carbon-carbon

Abstract
The atmospheric pressure chemical ionization of the dinitrotoluene isomers in ambient air was studied with a quadrupole mass spectrometer operating in the negative mode. The isomers can be grouped on the basis of the product ions: 2,5‐, and 2,6‐ and 3,5‐dinitrotoluene give the molecular anion with little fragmentation; 2,3‐ and the 3,4‐dinitrotoluene behave similarly but with more extensive fragmentation; 2,4‐dinitrotoluene gives the quasimolecular [DNT − H]^−^ ion with little fragmentation. The results are discussed in terms of the molecular structure of the isomers.

## Abstract A group of five neurotransmitters with different properties was analyzed using atmospheric pressure photoionization (APPI) and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization‐mass spectrometry (APCI‐MS). The sensitivity of the techniques for the analytes was tested in six solvents and in posit
Structural identiÐcation of drugs by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) is interesting, important and challenging. In this study, atmospheric pressure ionization (API) MS/MS was applied to probe the structure of timolol, a typical b-adrenergic receptor-blocking agent (b-blocker). The characteristic MS
