Fast atom bombardment mass spectra of a series of naturally occurring and synthetically modified iridoid glycosides were studied using lithium cationization and collision-induced dissociation of the resulting [M Y Li] Y ions. Lithium cationization leads to the unambiguous determination of the molecu

β¦ Synopsis
A mass spectrometric method based on the combined use of fast-atom bombardment (FAB), collisioninduced dissociation (CID) and linked scanning at constant B/E has been used for the analysis of the fragmentation behavior of protonated 3-methoxyflavones (3-MFs). It is shown that several diagnostic ions such as 1,3 A and 0,2 B ions allow for an unambiguous localization of functions in the A-and B-rings and that the position of an additional methoxy group in the B-ring could be determined by a detailed analysis of the spectral patterns. Isomeric 3-MFs can be differentiated using this methodology. General fragmentation patterns of 3-MFs are discussed and plausible formation mechanisms of relatively abundant fragment ions are proposed.

In this paper, we have shown that it is possible to differentiate an aspartic acid residue from its p-aspartic acid isomer in dipeptides according to the characteristic fragmentation pathways, i.e. specific immonium ion formation and cleavages involving side-chain atoms.
