Methyl benzoate can be isolated from the freshwater fern Salvinia molesta. [3] It is one of many compounds that is attractive to males of various species of orchid bees, which apparently gather the chemical to synthesize pheromones; it is commonly used as bait to attract and collect these bees for study.
Isotope peaks within a spectrum can help in structure elucidation. Compounds containing halogens (especially chlorine and bromine) can produce very distinct isotope peaks. The mass spectrum of methylbromide has two prominent peaks of equal intensity at m/z 94 (M) and 96 (M+2) and then two more at 79 and 81 belonging to the bromine fragment.
A mass spectrum is a histogram plot of intensity vs. mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) in a chemical sample, [1] usually acquired using an instrument called a mass spectrometer. Not all mass spectra of a given substance are the same; for example, some mass spectrometers break the analyte molecules into fragments ; others observe the intact molecular ...
Spectrum taken by me (apparently en:user:Deglr6328). The spectrometer appears to be about ~.6 to .8 nm off judging from the location of known peaks. Interpretation of spectral peaks has been done using the NIST database of spectra for mercury and an article on fluorescent light phosphors . This spectrum is not calibrated for intensity.
In mass spectrometry, fragmentation is the dissociation of energetically unstable molecular ions formed from passing the molecules mass spectrum. These reactions are well documented over the decades and fragmentation patterns are useful to determine the molar weight and structural information of unknown molecules.
For example, the sodium benzoate is an ionic compound with the structure C 6 H 5 –CO–O − Na +, and its condensed structural formula usually written as C 6 H 5 CO 2 Na. The suffix comes from "-oic acid". The most common examples of compounds named with the "oate" suffix are esters, like ethyl acetate, CH 3 COOCH 2 CH 3.
