An experimental and computational study on the dissociation behavior of hydroxypyridine N‐oxides in atmospheric pressure ionization mass spectrometry

Abstract: A tandem mass spectrometric study of protonated isomeric hydroxypyridine N-oxides was carried out with a hybrid quadrupole/time-of-flight mass spectrometer coupled with different atmospheric pressure ionization sources. The behavior observed in the collision-induced dissociation (CID) mass spectra of the parent cations, was similar irrespective of the source employed. However, there were intrinsic differences in the intensities of the two fragments observed for each isomer. The major fragment because of elimin… Show more

“…In this context, local reactivity indices such as the atomic nucleophilic indices (f k -), also known as electrophilic Fukui functions, provide an interesting alternative way to identify the most probable sites of protonation [19]. Recently, this methodology has been employed to identify the protonation sites in a series of natural and synthetic compounds [6,29,30].…”

“…It should be mentioned that in a previous work [6], we performed conformational studies of the protonated hydroxypyridine N-oxides 1 and 2 at the B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p) level of theory, finding two conformers for each isomer. In the stable conformations, the protonated oxygen group (hydroxyl) substituent was found to be coplanar with the aromatic ring, whereas the protonated oxygen group of the N-oxide moiety was oriented almost perpendicular to the aromatic ring, except when a hydrogen bond may occur in the structure, where was found to be coplanar.…”

“…For example, the optimized transition state 1-a-TS3 in path 3 shows a fourmembered ring transfer of the nitrobenzyl moiety to the ipso position of the benzoate group with concomitant loss of CO 2 ; the energy barrier is 215.9 kJ/mol ( Figure 2). However, DFT methods fail to identify the transition state geometry along the reaction coordinates in homolytic reactions (e.g., paths 1 and 2) because of difficulties in treating self-interactions of electrons [17,18]. Radical formation from closed-shell ions via an electronically excited state has been reported [12,[16][17][18].…”

Radical formation from closed-shell ions via an electronically excited state has been reported [12,[16][17][18]. The energy barrier of the homolytic reaction has been estimated by frequency analysis of the transient structure with an electronic excitation energy of~0 eV along the potential energy scanning curve [12,16].…”
