N2  - Molecular anions derived from Ar-CH=NOH systems fragment by the process [MI- &#8594; [M-H2O]- to yield pronounced peaks corresponding to [ArCN]-. Molecular anions from Ar(CH2)nC(NOH)Ph (n = 0-2) also eliminate H2O, but the mechanisms are often complex. Possible mechanisms for some of these eliminations are suggested after consideration of the + E spectra of non-decomposing [M?H2O]- ions. A characteristic cyclization/retro process of o-O2NC6H4-CH=CH-C(NOH)R molecular anions produces CHO-CR=N-O- as the major product anion.
