The mass spectrum of 3-ethyl-3-methylheptane [(CH3CH2)2C(CH3)CH2CH2CH2CH3] shows fragments at m/z = 127, 113, and 85. Propose structures for the ions that give rise to these peaks
The base peak in the mass spectrum of 2,2,5,5-tetramethylhexane (molecular mass = 142) is at m/z = 57, which corresponds to a composition of C4H9. Suggest a structure for the fragment that accounts for this peak and offer a reason for why this fragment is so abundant.
The mass spectrum of 2,2-dimethylpropane shows only a very weak molecular ion peak at m/z = 72. However, a large peak at m/z = 57 is seen. Suggest a possible structure of the fragment giving rise to this large peak and suggest a reason as to why this peak is so large.
