Diagnostic positive and negative ion fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry of low-molecular-weight ammonium compounds of marine origin.

Five ammonium compounds--betaine, taurine, homarine, trigonelline and tetramethylammonium chloride--were investigated by positive and negative ion fast atom bombardment (FAB) mass spectrometry. Observation of the parent cation [M + H]+ together with series of clusters (e.g. [nM + H]+, n = 2-5) and fragmentation patterns in the positive FAB mode may be used diagnostically as a fingerprint of the compound. The shifts in mass and relative intensity by addition of trichloroacetic acid and metal salts offer corroborating information of the identity of a compound in a mixture. The FAB negative ion spectra were characterized by clusters incorporating the anion (e.g. [M + Cl]-) but are generally less informative than the spectra obtained in the positive mode.
