Conclusions
-
1.
The mass spectra of the positive and negative ions of cis- and trans-α,β-difluorocinnamic acids and some of their derivative were studied. Fluorine atoms decrease the stabilities of these molecules with respect to electron impact.
-
2.
The mass spectra of the positive and negative ions of the cis and trans isomers differ and can be used to identify the geometrical isomers of α,β-difluorocinnamic acids.
-
3.
Rearrangement processes prevail over processes involving simple bond cleavage under resonance electron-capture conditions.
