Mza. Badr et al., ELECTRON IMPACT-PROMOTED FRAGMENTATION OF SOME SUBSTITUTED 4-QUINAZOLONES, Journal of mass spectrometry., 30(12), 1995, pp. 1701-1706
Low-resolution mass spectra, and where appropriate complete high-resol
ution mass spectra, were recorded for 29 2,3-disubstituted 4-quinazolo
nes. Rationalizations are presented for the principal fragmentation mo
des of this series of aromatic compounds, Four of the 4-quinazolones w
hich contain a vinyl-2-furanyl group attached to C-2 of the heterocycl
ic ring exhibited an unusual loss of C3H2O from their respective molec
ular ions.
