The mass spectra of some promazine sulphoxide derivatives have been examined. Specifically deuterated analogues of promazine and promazine sulphoxide were prepared and their mass spectra used to determine the specificity of the hydrogen transfer processes observed in the unlabelled compounds.

Under electron impact, Schiff bases give a stable molecular ion which undergoes simple fission at the ring-nitrogen and ring-carbon bonds. Ortho substitution leads to ions derived from five-membered heterocycles. Derivatives of o-methoxy-benzaldehyde exhibit a two-hydrogen transfer with fission of the azomethine double bond to give the amine radical-ion.

Positive Ion

Electron ionization positive-ion mass spectra are reported for 18 substituted nickel(II) β-diketonates and monothio-β-diketonates, NiII(RCXCHCOR′)2, where X = O or S; R = phenyl, 2-thienyl, 5-methyl-2-thienyl, or 2-naphthyl; and R′ = difluoromethyl, trifluoromethyl, pentafluoroethyl, or n-heptafluoropropyl. Each mass spectrum contains a prominent molecular ion, [NiL2]+, which, for β-diketonates, fragments mainly by elimination of the odd-electron R′• species; the resulting ion decomposes by losses of one or more even-electron neutral species to yield ions containing nickel(II). In contrast, the major fragmentation of the molecular ion of monothio-β-diketonates is loss of NiIL to yield an abundant L+ ion. Furthermore, while most ions contain nickel(II), some prominent ions contain nickel(I); among these are [NiISC(R) = CH]+ and [NiI(HCCR)]+. Interesting ions are formed by hydrogen transfer processes. The [NiHL]+ ion is favored in the spectra of β-diketonates having a phenyl substituent, consistent with hydrogen transfer to the metal from the aryl group. On the other hand, the [Ni(L–H)]+ ion, favored for the monothio-β-diketonates, could be formed by hydrogen transfer from the central position of the chelate ring or from an aryl substituent. Alternative mechanisms of formation are discussed. Some minor ions are formed by fluorine transfer to nickel. The trends in their abundances are influenced by the hardness of nickel as an acid in its different oxidation states, under the influence of the ligand donor atoms, and by the hardness of the carbon atoms of the perfluoroalkyl substituents.

Critical Interest

Although it is recognized that niacin (pyridine-3-carboxylic acid), incorporated as the amide in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) or in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP), is a cofactor in hydrogen transfer in numerous enzyme reactions in all organisms studied, virtually no information is available on the effect of this vitamin on a cell at the submicroscopic level. Since mitochondria act as sites for many hydrogen transfer processes, the possible response of mitochondria to niacin treatment is, therefore, of critical interest.Onion bulbs were placed on vials filled with double distilled water in the dark at 25°C. After two days the bulbs and newly developed root system were transferred to vials containing 0.1% niacin. Root tips were collected at ¼, ½, 1, 2, 4, and 8 hr. intervals after treatment. The tissues were fixed in glutaraldehyde-OsO4 as well as in 2% KMnO4 according to standard procedures. In both cases, the tissues were dehydrated in an acetone series and embedded in Reynolds' lead citrate for 3-10 minutes.

Partial electron impact induced mass spectra are given of 3α-hydroxy-, 3β-hydroxy-, 3β-methoxy-, 3α-acetoxy- and 3β-acetoxy-4,4-dimethyl-A-homo-4a,6-cholestadienes, 3α,5α-epoxy-4,4-dimethyl-A-homo-5-cholestane, isomeric 4,4-dimethyl-A-homo-5-cholestene-3α(β),4aα(β)-diols, their 3-acetoxy derivatives and 3-methyl ethers. The fragmentation of the molecular ions of these substances involves the usual elimination of substituents (in the form of H2O, CH3OH, CH3COOH, CH2CO), but the most abundant and characteristic ions are products of the contraction of ring A (to a six- or five-membered one), accompanied by expulsion of a fragment containing the carbon atom C(4) with both methyls.

Quinoline Ring

The mass spectra of six furoquinoline alkaloids have been recorded and mechanisms have been proposed for their fragmentation upon electron impact. Strong metastable peaks, present in all spectra, have aided in the interpretation of the fragmentation of these alkaloids. The three alkaloids with a methoxyl group in the 8-position of the quinoline ring may be differentiated from the other three by the presence of relatively intense peaks at M-1 and M-29.

Metastable Ions

The mass spectra of representative series of simple alkyl acetoacetates, alkyl acetothioacetates, and some unsaturated esters derived from unsaturated alcohols or phenols are reported and discussed. The fragmentation schemes have been established by high resolution measurements, appropriate metastable ions, and by deuterium and 18O labelling. Many of the spectra show significant skeletal rearrangement fragments arising from either loss of carbon monoxide or carbon dioxide.
