Abstract

AbstractA detailed exploration of the application of triple quadrupoles in sequential mass spectrometry has been carried out using dimethylmorpholinophosphoramidate as a case study of an ion of relatively high mass and complex structure. Both metastable ion decomposition and dissociation by low energy collision were examined. Variation of the basic instrument parameters allowed the investigation of the cross‐section for dissociation as a function of collision energy, the change in fragmentation patterns with collision energy, the kinetic energy distributions of daughter ions and the overall kinetics of dissociation in a succession of ion decomposition sequences giving daughter and granddaughter ions. The daughter ions could also be produced in the source region and examined separately so that a genealogical tree could be established.
