P. Blanchard et al., ELECTRON IONIZATION MASS-SPECTRA OF HYDROXYMETHYLTETRATHIAFULVALENES AND BIS(HYDROXYMETHYL)TETRATHIAFULVALENES, Rapid communications in mass spectrometry, 8(9), 1994, pp. 701-705
The mass spectra of hydroxymethyltetrathiafulvalenes and bis(hydroxyme
thyl)tetrathiafulvalenes have been studied by electron ionization, met
astable analysis and accurate mass measurements. The elimination of wa
ter from molecular ions of bis(hydroxymethyl)tetrathiafulvalenes has b
een investigated with the aid of isotopic labelling and the structures
of the ions thus formed have been established by collision-induced di
ssociation studies.
