Several 2H-chromenes derived from carbazoles were analyzed by electrospray tandem mass spectrometry. The 2H-chromenes constitute an important class of compounds that exhibit photochromic activity. The fragmentation pathways of the protonated molecular species [M+H]+ were studied, and main fragmentation pathways of these compounds were identified. Fragmentation pathways of [M+D]+ ions were also ...

Ferrocene is a popular template in material science due to its exceptional characteristics that offer the ability to optimize the selectivity and activity of catalysts by the addition of carefully selected substituents. In combinatorial catalyst development, the high susceptibility to electrophilic substitution reactions offers the opportunity for the rapid introduction of molecular diversity. ...
