2. Review your bond breakage assignments in 1a.-g. and suggest some guidelines for<br />

predicting sites of breakage and ion masses in the mass spectra of any given compound.<br />

Application:<br />

a. Use your guidelines developed above to help you predict the masses of major peaks that you<br />

would expect in the mass spectrum of each of the following structures. For each predicted<br />

peak, explain what data and logic led you to the prediction.<br />

b. Use your experience in the Exploration to help you identify as many molecular fragments<br />

present in the molecules with the following molecular formulas and mass spectral peaks.<br />

Then suggest possible structures of molecule that could have produced the spectra. For each<br />

structure suggested, explain what data and logic led you to the prediction.<br />

m/e = 102, 87, 73, 59, & 43<br />

(2.) C 4 H 11 N<br />

m/e = 73 & 30
