β¦ Synopsis
In this study, several anticancer drugs and their analogues consisting of organic and organometallic compounds were analyzed by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI/MS) using a quadrupole mass spectrometer. Protonated molecular ions M+H were observed for all of the compounds studied, and in the case of the two steroid sulfates, deprotonated molecular ions M-H were obtained. Tandem mass spectrometry was performed on these quasimolecular ions, and the product ions formed provided useful fragmentation patterns that were characteristic for the compounds. This study provides evidence that ESI/MS is a sensitive technique for structure confirmation and identification of small organic and organometallic molecules.
