Abstract
The Schiff-base complex ion formed between the vitamin B 6 molecule and the primary amine was investigated by electrospray ionization MS/MS in the gas phase. The two observed fragments at the MS/MS spectrum were different from the normal alkene loss (Onium reaction or McLafferty rearrangement) fragments of immonium ions. The R–CH–ND loss fragment from the 3H/D-deuterated Schiff-base complex ion was observed as one of two fragments in the MS/MS spectrum. The R–CH–ND loss fragment is thought to have originated from the simultaneous effect of a 3-OH functional group and a pyridine ring in the immonium ion.
