Formation of both fragment and polymeric ions observed in the electron impact mass spectrum of molybdenyl acetylacetonate exhibit a strong dependence on the instantaneous pressure in the ionization source. The indicated source pressure increases with increasing direct probe temperature. Utilizing a probe temperature increase of only 30°C min−1, the relative abundances of some ions can change by factors as high as 15 over a period of 60 s. Some ions are remarkably transient, appearing in only the few scans during which the source pressure corresponds to just that required for their formation. These rapid changes in the ion relative abundances are also exhibited in tandem mass spectra, and especially in parent ion scans. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
