Abstract
AbstractC4H8+˙ ions generated from ionized n‐butanol (a) and from ionized 2‐methylpropanol (b) were characterized by reaction of the daughter ions with ammonia in a Fourier transform mass spectrometer. Hydrogen transfers occur in a in the ratio five‐membered ring:six‐membered ring = 1:3.2. However, both hydrogen‐transfers are followed by the formation of ionized methylcyclopropane. Ionized methylcyclopropane is also produced on elimination of water from b.
