Abstract
AbstractWhen subjected to electron‐impact, chloromethyl aryl sulphones (II, X = Cl) fragment predominantly by the loss of CH2Cl from the molecular ion followed by the loss of SO2 and in most cases the appropriate metastable peaks are present to confirm the transitions. In addition, alkyl–oxygen bond formation in the molecular ion was revealed by the presence of prominent peaks corresponding to the [Rϕ‐SO]+ ions. In most spectra no evidence for aryl–oxygen bond formation could be found and thus the presence of the chlorine atom was able to effectively reverse the direction of skeletal rearrangement reported for aryl methyl sulphones.
