Abstract
The mass spectrometric behavior of 3-methyl-3-hydroxybenzoxocines has been studied in detail by means of linked scans and mass analyzed ion kinetic energy spectrometry. The structure of the molecular ion and the fragmentation processes are strictly related to the structure of the neutral moieties. The possible isomerization of 3-hydroxy-10-methoxy-3-methyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-[1]benzoxocine to 2-methyl-2-[3-(3′-methoxy-2′-hydroxy)phenyl]pentyloxirane and to 2-hydroxymethyl-9-methoxy-2-methyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro[1]benzoxepine is investigated.
