Abstract
The mass spectra of substituted 1,3-dimethylindan-I-ols (R=H, NH2, Cl) have been recorded under similar conditions, and mechanistic schemes proposed to explain their fragmentation. It has been observed that the substituents have little effect on the mode of fragmentation, other than expected. Some of the proposed cleavages have been substantiated by appropriate metastable peaks, while the mass spectra of some related compounds support the generation of some other observed ions.
