Electron Ionization Mass Spectra of Organophosphorus Compounds Part I: The Mass Fragmentation Pathways of Cyclic α-Aminophosphonates Monoester Containing 1,2,4-Triazinone Moiety

Abstract

The electron impact induced fragmentation reactions of 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-3,4- dihydro-2-ethoxy-2-oxido-7-methyl-2H,6H-[1,2,4]triazino[4,3-e][1,4,5,2]thiadiazaphosphin in-6-one (1), 3,7-dimethyl-2-ethoxy-2-oxido-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6H-[1,2,4]triazino[4,3-b][1,2,4,5]triazaphosphinin-6-one (2), and 9-amino-3,7-dimethyl-4-ethoxy-4-oxido-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-8H-[1,2,4]triazino[3,2-c][1,2,4,5]triazaphosphinin-8-one (3) are presented and compared. The 1,2,4-triazine rings have almost identical fragmentation routes. The 1,2,4-triazine rings are rather stable relative to the phosphorus rings. Therefore, fragmentation of the phosphorus rings is more favorable for the compounds than the stable 1,2,4-triazine rings.
