Mass Spectrometry Study of Coumarins: Correlation Between Charges of Atoms and Fragmentation Processes
نویسندگان
چکیده
The mass spectrometry of a number of 6-substituted coumarins was studied in the context of correlating fragmentation pathways and electronic charges of atoms performed by AM1 semiempirical method. The atomic charges of atoms are found to be good predictors of the fragmentation pathways.

Simultaneous Determination of Coumarin and Its Derivatives in Tobacco Products by Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry.
In this paper an analytical method based on high performance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) for the determination of coumarin and its derivatives in tobacco products was developed. The MS/MS fragmentation pathways of the eight coumarins were elucidated. The new analytical method was defined based on two main axes, an extraction procedure with acetonitrile...
متن کاملMass Spectral Fragmentation Studies of Coumarin-Type Compounds Using GC High-Resolution MS
The present study was undertaken to investigate fragmentation of a set of thirteen coumarins that bear amino-, alkylamino-, alkyl-, fluoroalkyl-groups, and heterocyclic rings, in a high-resolution (>10,000) quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer equipped with an the electron ionization source and interfaced to a gas chromatograph. We have demonstrated how our data processing software is us...
متن کاملO-6: A Multi-Regional Study on New Approaches to Investigate The Quality of Human Sperm - Including DNA Fragmentation, Proteomics and Metabolomics
Background: Preliminary data has also shown that there is less fragmented sperm in 2nd and 3rd ejaculates compared to first ones which could be a major factor in determining the pregnancy outcome. Assessing this factor objectively and relating it to other parameters in sperm quality in this study could result in new prediction criteria for the pregnancy outcome. Materials and Methods: As one of...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Photo Conversion of Asphaltenes Using Laser Desorption Ionization Mass Spectrometry: Fragmentation, Ring Fusion, and Fullerene Formation
The conversion or photo conversion of asphaltenes to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH’s) promoted by a laser source is analyzed using both experimental and theoretical methods. We propose that during measurements performed at an intermediate laser power, fragmentation to afford PAH’s and ring fusion to yield fused PAH’s (FPAH’s) may occur either within molecular clusters (resin case) or wi...
متن کاملTheoretical Study of the Correlation between 14N NQCC and Its Partial Atomic Charge in Amino Derivatives of Adamantane
The electronic structures and the electrostatic potential of some amino derivatives of adamantane have been studied using the density functional theory. The partial atomic charges and nuclear quadrupole coupling constants (NQCC) of 14N nucleus of the considered molecules have been reported. The partial atomic charges are calculated with two methods for 14N nucleus: Mulliken charges and natural ...
