The positive ion fast atom bombardment mass spectra of ten glycoalkaloids and five related alkaloids are reported. The spectra of the glycoalkaloids are characterized by abundant [M + H] + species and fragment ions, resulting from cleavage of the individual carbohydrate groups. Several of these ions have been observed to be diagnostic for individual glycoalkaloids and have allowed the analysis of mixtures of standards as well as crude extracts of potato peel and sprout.
