✦ Synopsis
Several alkali cation complexes of chiral alkoxymethyl-substituted acylsilanes, prepared in situ by the admixture of alkali iodides to acylsilane sample solutions, were investigated by electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry. Competition experiments suggest that the relative complex stabilities of such species in acetonitrile solution follow the order [Formula: see text], which is different from the order of the relative stabilities of the complexes in the gas phase ([Formula: see text]) as qualitatively determined by a tandem mass spectrometry-type experiment. Additionally, a rough correlation of relative ion responses in the mass spectrometry with relative stereoselectivities-derived from chelate-controlled reactions performed with the respective silanes-was found. The latter observation suggests that the electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry technique is a potentially useful method to predict chemical behavior, and it demands little experimental effort.
