Abstract
Loss of HCN from the molecular ion of benzaldoximes occurs via two distinct involving a 4‐membered and a 5‐membered intermediate, respectively. Both low energy high energy molecular ion decomposition were investigated by means of metastable peak shapes and the energetics of further decomposition of ions, respectively. Substituent effects previously held responsible for differences in the behaviour of m‐ and p‐methoxybenzaldoximes are shown to be negligible; the differences are due to the differense in internal energy contents.

The isomeric 3,4-diethylmuconic acid dimethyl esters behave differently under electronimpact. Methanol elimination from the molecular ion is one of the most important processes in the trans, trum diester. In the cis, cis and cis, trans isomers, however, the loss of a methoxyI radical from the molecu
