✦ Synopsis


New substituted 2-amino-3-cyano-4H-pyrans have been studied by electron ionization (EI), chemical ionization (CI) and electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry. The retro-Diels-Alder reaction (RDA) is the main fragmentation pattern observed in the EI spectra forming an unsaturated ketone as the diene fragment. In contrast, a different RDA reaction takes place yielding an unsaturated amide as diene fragment together with the unsaturated ketone in the CI spectra. The MS/MS spectra obtained using an ESI source reveal that the favoured fragmentation by collision induced dissociation (CID) is the elimination of the substituent at the C4 position with formation of a stable pyrilium cation.
