Ring contraction reactions of 2,3-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazin-4-ones under electrospray ionization conditions. 2004
The mass spectral behavior of 2,3-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazin-4-ones has been investigated using electrospray ionization multi-stage mass spectrometry (ESI-MS(n)). All compounds showed a predominant retro-Diels-Alder (RDA) fragmentation pathway, and a novel ring contraction reaction by loss of isocynates was also found. The fragmentation mechanisms proposed for 4H-1,3-oxazin-4-ones are supported by ESI-MS/MS/MS spectra.
