Electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry investigation of polymerization of tetrahydrofuran initiated by phosphorus oxychloride.
Phosphorus oxychloride was found to induce ring opening of tetrahydrofuran (THF) to synthesise THF oligomer incorporated phosphate. ESI multi-stage tandem mass spectrometry was used to study the products and confirm the structures.
