✦ Synopsis
Extensive randomization of the substituents is found in mono-and disubstituted diphenylacetylenes under electron impact conditions. The study of diphenylacetylenes with a variety of substituents indicates that the electronwithdrawing groups favour the substituent scrambling. All the substituted diphenylacetylenes give an ion at m/z 176, having a common ion-structure, arising as a result of the expulsion of a hydrogen radical and the substituent in monosubstituted diphenylacetylenes and the expulsion of both the substituents in disubstituted diphenylacetylenes. A ring-expanded structure is postulated for this common fragment.
