Vn. Bochkarev et al., Comparison of the mass spectral fragmentation pathways of organochlorogermanes and organochlorosilanes, RUSS J G CH, 70(6), 2000, pp. 897-901
Propyl-, butyl-, vinyl-, clorophenyl-, and phenyltrichlorogermanes under el
ectron impact decompose by channels different from those characteristic of
the corresponding silanes. Methyl-, ethyl-, allyltri-chlorogermanes, and vi
nyldichlorogermane decompose in the same way as the corresponding silanes.
Fragmentation pathways of the organochlorogermanes and organochlorosilanes
studied are proposed.
