The mechanism of methyl radical loss from CH3CH[double bond, length half m-dash]CHCH(CH3)OCH3 and CH2[double bond, length half m-dash]C(CH3)CH(CH3)OCH3: a not-so-simple cleavage

Abstract

Loss of a methyl radical from CH3CH[double bond, length half m-dash]CHCH(CH3)OCH3 and CH2[double bond, length half m-dash]C(CH3)CH(CH3)OCH3 is shown by 2H-labelling and collision-induced dissociation experiments to involve elimination of the methyl group originally attached to the double bond, with formation of CH2[double bond, length half m-dash]CHC(CH3)[double bond, length half m-dash]O+CH3 as the fragment ion.
