Abstract

Fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry (FABMS) of several taxanes and 11(15→1)abeo-taxanes having a 4(20)-exocyclic methylene group or oxetane ring was studied in detail using collision-induced dissociation (CID) of their [M+Li]+, [M+Na]+ and [M+NH4]+ ions. The results indicate that FAB followed by MS/MS is a valuable tool for the identification of functional groups in taxanes and to some extent the type of taxane under investigation. The presence of hydroxy groups in the molecule is best confirmed by examining the CID of the [M+NH4]+ adduct ions. The 11(15→1)abeo-taxanes are characterized by elimination of the hydroxyisopropylidene group with an acetoxy or benzoyloxy group.
