Abstract
The principal fragmentation pathways of mevalonolactone are initiated by cleavage Ξ± to the hydroxyl function. Each major route has been delineated by using isotopic labelling and metastable analysis. A knowledge of this fragmentation pattern is useful for the calculation of isotopic purity and specificity in samples of mevalonolactone used as substrates in biosynthetic studies.

## Abstract The formation of an [M + 1]^+^ ion and the fragmentation of isopropyl __o__βtoluate have been investigated by the deuterium labelling technique and kinetic energy release measurements. The hydrogen atom involved in the [M + 1]^+^ ion formation does not originate from a specific part of
