✦ Synopsis
Unexpected ejections of CH,NO,/I'CH, + 'NO,], N,O,/l'NO, + 'NO,] and CH,OCH,/['CH, + 'OCH,] were observed from the molecular ions of 2-methoxy-2'-nitrodiphenylamine, 2,Tdinitrodiphenylamine and 2,Tdimethoxydiphenylamine, respectively, under electron impact conditions owing to proximity effects. In other competing fragmentation pathways, novel proximity effects triggered by the ortho interactions leading to the unusual eliminations of ['CH, + H,OI from M" of 2-methoxy-2'-nitrodiphenylamine and HNO,/['NO, + 'OH] from M" of 2,Tdinitrodiphenylamine were observed. Evidence for the interpretation of the main fragmentation pathways was obtained from the metastable ion spectra and high-resolution mass spectrometry. Confirmation of the structures assigned to the ions was provided by collision-activated dissociation mass-analysed ion kinetic energy spectra.
