Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The γ-lactone is more stable than the δ-lactone both relative to electron impact and upon chemical ionization.

  2. 2.

    The major pathways for fragmentation upon electron impact for the γ-lactone are related to decomposition of the cyclohexane ring, while, in the case of δ-lactone, fragmentation of the oxygen-containing part of the molecule also occurs in addition to these processes.
