β¦ Synopsis
The mass spectra of the C, to C, n-alkanals and a number of branched aldehydes have been obtained at a resolution sufficient to resolve the O-CH4 doublets. From the resolved spectra, a study of metastable transitions, and the spectrum of one deuterium-labelled alkanal, (n-hexanal-2,2-dz) the major fragmentation reactions have been elucidated. Of particular interest are the y-cleavage reaction, leading to [C,H,O]+ in the n-alkanals, which proceeds both by a simple cleavage and by cleavage preceded by hydrogen interchange, and the loss of CzH4, which involves loss of the C, and, probably Cs, carbons.
