Tandem mass spectrometric analysis of distinct fragmentation patterns to [M+Na]/z and [M+H]/z of dendritic Al(III) and Zn(II) quinolates.
The synthesis of two novel dendritic aluminum and zinc quinolates, which are soluble in common solvents, was monitored effectively by positive ion electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). Through tandem mass spectrometric analysis of the complexes, distinct fragmentation pathways for sodium adduct molecular ion [M+Na]+ and protonated molecular ion [M+H]+ were observed.
