Abstract

Mass spectroscopy is a particularly powerful analytical method of structure determination. The occurrence of molecular rearrangements of ions, often with concurrent fragmentation, in the mass spectrometer complicates the determination of the original structure. Certainly such rearrangements must be recognized if fragment ions are to provide useful structural data. Two major types of rearrangements involving silyl centers have been observed. The first ...
