摘要

An electron-ionization (EI) mass spectra of a series of 1-arylazonaphthalen-2-ols was obtained for studying the substituent effect on the fragmentation. The correlation between the ratio, molecular ion and fragment ion, and Hammett's constants is applied to examine the effect of the substituent on the fragmentation. The negative correction between the ratio, I-molecular ion/(I-171amu + I-143amu + I-115amu), and Hammett's constants indicates an electron-withdrawing group destabilized the molecular ion. An unusual long-range hydrogen transfer demonstrates an important role in the fragmentation process.
