Electron impact (EI) spectra of polymethylene-bridged carbonylhydrazones of 4'-formylbis(benzo-15crown-5 ether)s, their 18-crown-6 analogs, and their complexes with alkali cations (Na , K , and Cs ) were studied. Evidently, there are three main routes of fragmentation, including two types of McLaffe

✦ Synopsis
Six structurally related crown ethers have been studied by electron impact @I) mass spectrometry. From accurate mass measurements, metastabel ion and mass-analyzed ion kinetic energy (MIKE) spectra, plausible fragmentation pathways were deduced. All compounds showed very abundant molecular ions and some amount of the doubly charged molecular ions. The primary fragmentations always involved the catechol moiety and consequent loss of oxirane although the fragment(ation)s also showed a clear dependence on the functionalities X in one of the crown ether segments, -OCH2XCHzO-(compoundfi: l/-CHz-, 2/-C=C-, 3 / t r a n s P H = CH-, 4 / c i s P H = CH-, 5/-HC+H-, and 6/-C€12CHr).

The isomeric 2, 3-, 5, 6-and 8-quinolinylphthalimides give rise to different electron impact ionization mass spectra, which permit easy distinction. The specific fragmentation processes are rationalized in terms of proximity effects and stabilization of cyclic ion structures. Collision-induced disso
Stereoisomeric cisand trans-1-butyl-3-dimethylaminocyclohexanols have been previously reported to exhibit different electron impact (EI) mass spectra. The m/z 100 ion is obtained only from the cis-isomer. The [ C 6 H 14 N ] results of a collision-induced dissociation study are inconsistent with the
