About this document

Mass Spectrometry in Organic Chemistry by Héctor Montenegro is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Mass spectrometry is a technique that separates ions based on their mass-to-charge ratio and records a spectrum showing ion abundance versus m/z. The minimum requirement for a mass spectrometer is unit resolution, which separates peaks such that the valley between is no more than 10% of the peak height, allowing measurement up to around m/z 2000. Electron impact is commonly used to bombard molecules with electrons, producing molecular and fragment ions that reveal structural information. Details of fragment
