AN ELECTRON IMPACT STUDY OF METHYL PHENYL ETHERS

Abstract
The mass spectra of anisole, anisole-methoxy-d3, meta and para methylanisole, meta and para methyl-d3-anisole, and meta and para niethylanisole-methoxy-d3 have been recorded. From the deuterium labelling and appearance potential studies, the main fragmentation paths on electron impact have been elucidated. The energetics of formation of the CH3OC7H6+ ion from the methylanisoles, benzyl methyl ether, 7-methoxycycloheptatriene, and the ethylanisoles have been studied.
