## When is used as a reagent gas for negative-ion chemical ionization (NCI) of phenothiazines and related com-O 2 pounds, the majority of the ions observed are formed by surface-catalyzed reactions prior to ionization. Both oxidation of the sulfur atom and formation of quinoid systems are observed

β¦ Synopsis
Dibenzothiophene (1) suffers surface-catalyzed oxidation under CI(O2) conditions. While in the positive mode M(+) is the only major ion and those of the oxidation products are of minor importance in the negative mode, essentially only ions stemming from oxidized species can be seen, the sulfone ion M+O2 being the most important one. The ion m/z 184 previously attributed to M(-) is actually the anion of 2-sulfobenzoic acid cyclic anhydride. Structures for the various oxidation products are proposed and the mechanisms leading to their formation are discussed.
