Notes:
The chemical ionization mass spectrum of peroxyacetylnitrate, a major component of photochemical smog highly toxic to man and plants, was obtained using both methane and isobutane as reagent gas. The spectrum contains a [M + H]+ ion at m/e 122, intense fragment ions at m/e 43 [CH,CO]+ and m/e 46 [NO2]+, and less intense ions at m/e 61 [CH,ONO]+, m/e 77 [CH30NOz]+ and m/e 88 [+O≡CCH2ONO] formed by internal rearrangements. These results confirm the commonly accepted structure for peroxyacetylnitrate, CH3(CO)OONO2.
