Conclusions
-
1.
Study has been made of the mass spectra of ethyleneimine, azetidine, pyrolidine, piperidine, hexamethyleneimine, and their N-trimethylsilyl derivatives.
-
2.
High-intensity peaks for molecular ions have been observed in the mass spectra of the imines; breakdown of these ions occurs through loss of H, C2H5, C2H3, and CH3 radicals, and C2H4 and H2 molecules.
-
3.
Peaks for splinter ions containing silicon predominate in the mass spectra of the N-trimethylsilyl derivatives of the imines.
