Mass spectrometry of derivatives of cyclopropene fatty acids.
Diketo fatty acids prepared by ozonization of cyclopropene fatty acids have been separated and purified by chromatographic techniques. Mass spectra of esters of these compounds and of methanethiol adducts of cyclopropene acid esters are reported and interpreted. Location of the ring from examination of mass spectra of these derivatives appears to be a straightforward matter.
