  3. Principles of Electron-Impact Mass Spectrometry Atom or molecule is hit by high-energy electron electron is deflected but transfers much of its energy to the molecule e–

  4. Principles of Electron-Impact Mass Spectrometry Atom or molecule is hit by high-energy electron electron is deflected but transfers much of its energy to the molecule e–

  5. Principles of Electron-Impact Mass Spectrometry This energy-rich species ejects an electron.

  6. Principles of Electron-Impact Mass Spectrometry This energy-rich species ejects an electron. forming a positively charged, odd-electron species called the molecular ion e– +•

  7. +• Principles of Electron-Impact Mass Spectrometry Molecular ion passes between poles of a magnet and is deflected by magnetic field amount of deflection depends on mass-to-charge ratio highest m/z deflected least lowest m/z deflected most

  8. Principles of Electron-Impact Mass Spectrometry If the only ion that is present is the molecular ion, mass spectrometry provides a way to measure the molecular weight of a compound and is often used for this purpose. However, the molecular ion often fragments to a mixture of species of lower m/z.

  9. Principles of Electron-Impact Mass Spectrometry The molecular ion dissociates to a cationand a radical. +•

  10. + Principles of Electron-Impact Mass Spectrometry The molecular ion dissociates to a cationand a radical. Usually several fragmentation pathways are available and a mixture of ions is produced. •

  11. Principles of Electron-Impact Mass Spectrometry mixture of ions of different mass gives separate peak for each m/z intensity of peak proportional to percentage of each ion of different mass in mixture separation of peaks depends on relative mass + + + + + +

  12. Principles of Electron-Impact Mass Spectrometry mixture of ions of different mass gives separate peak for each m/z intensity of peak proportional to percentage of each atom of different mass in mixture separation of peaks depends on relative mass + + + + + +

  19. 13.22Molecular Formulaas aClue to Structure

  20. O CH3CO Molecular Weights CH3(CH2)5CH3 Mass spectrometry can measure exact masses. Therefore, mass spectrometry can give molecular formulas. Heptane Cyclopropyl acetate C7H16 C5H8O2 Molecular formula 100 100 Molecular weight Exact mass 100.1253 100.0524

  21. Molecular Formulas Knowing that the molecular formula of a substance is C7H16 tells us immediately that is an alkane because it corresponds to CnH2n+2 C7H14 lacks two hydrogens of an alkane, therefore contains either a ring or a double bond

  22. Index of Hydrogen Deficiency relates molecular formulas to multiple bonds and rings index of hydrogen deficiency = 1 (molecular formula of alkane – molecular formula of compound) 2

  23. 1 2 1 2 1 2 Example 1 C7H14 index of hydrogen deficiency = (molecular formula of alkane – molecular formula of compound) = (C7H16 – C7H14) = (2) = 1 Therefore, one ring or one double bond.

  24. 1 2 1 2 Example 2 C7H12 = (C7H16 – C7H12) = (4) = 2 Therefore, two rings, one triple bond,two double bonds, or one double bond + one ring.

  25. Oxygen has no effect CH3(CH2)5CH2OH (1-heptanol, C7H16O) has same number of H atoms as heptane index of hydrogen deficiency = 1 = 0 (C7H16 – C7H16O) 2 no rings or double bonds

  26. O CH3CO Oxygen has no effect Cyclopropyl acetate index of hydrogen deficiency = 1 = 2 (C5H12 – C5H8O2) 2 one ring plus one double bond

  27. C C If halogen is present Treat a halogen as if it were hydrogen. H Cl C3H5Cl same index of hydrogendeficiency as for C3H6 H CH3

  28. Rings versus Multiple Bonds Index of hydrogen deficiency tells us the sum ofrings plus multiple bonds. Catalytic hydrogenation tells us how many multiple bonds there are.
