Suppose you had to suggest a way of distinguishing between pentan-2-one and pentan-3-one using their mass spectra.
pentan-2-one | CH3COCH2CH2CH3 | |
pentan-3-one | CH3CH2COCH2CH3 |
Each of these is likely to split to produce ions with a positive charge on the CO group. In the pentan-2-one case, there are two different ions like this:
[CH3CO]+
[COCH2CH2CH3]+
That would give you strong lines at m/z = 43 and 71.
With pentan-3-one, you would only get one ion of this kind:
[CH3CH2CO]+
In that case, you would get a strong line at 57. You don't need to worry about the other lines in the spectra - the 43, 57 and 71 lines give you plenty of difference between the two. The 43 and 71 lines are missing from the pentan-3-one spectrum, and the 57 line is missing from the pentan-2-one one.
The two mass spectra look like this:
As you've seen, the mass spectrum of even very similar organic compounds will be quite different because of the different fragmentations that can occur. Provided you have a computer data base of mass spectra, any unknown spectrum can be computer analysed and simply matched against the data base.
