✦ Synopsis
Electron impact mass spectra of substituted norbornadienecyclopentadieny~h~um complexes have been studied.
The decompositions of molecular ions are (i) metal-ligand bond rupture, (ii) norbornadiene skeleton destruction, (iii) substituent or hydrogen atom elimination from the norbornadiene moiety and (iv) radical or neutral molecule elimination from the substituent(s) on the diene ligand. Norbornadiene ligand loss occurs more easily than loss of the cyclopentadienyl ring. Elimination of C,H,R and C,H, from the diene ligand leads to the formation of rhadocenium or its corresponding substituted derivatives. It is proposed that bridging C-C bond rupture followed by migration of the endo-H atom around the six-membered ring precedes the loss of the substituent. Some decomposition pathways of the norbornadiene ligand are explained in terms of specific interaction between the metal atom and substituent.
