Fast atom bombardment (FAB) and collisional activation dissociation (CAD) mass‐analysed ion kinetic energy (MIKE) spectra have confirmed the structures of retinyl phosphate (Ret‐P), retinyl phosphate mannose (Ret‐P‐Man) and guanosine 5′‐diphospho‐ D ‐mannose (GDP‐Man). Ret‐P‐Man was made in vitro while Ret‐P and GDP‐Man were chemically synthesized. Positive ion FAB mass spectrometry of Ret‐P showed an observable short‐lived spectrum with a mass ion at m /z 367 [M + H] + , and a major fragment ion at m /z 269 [M+HH 3 PO 4 ] + . Negative ion FAB mass spectrometry of Ret‐P showed a strong stable spectrum with a parent ion at m /z 365 [MH] − , a glycerol (G) adduct ion at m /z 457 [MH+G] − and a dimer ion at m /z 731 [2MH] − . GDP‐Man showed an intense spectrum with parent ion at m /z 604 [MH] − and cationized species at m /z 626 [M+Na‐2H] − and 648 [M+2Na‐3H] − . Negative ion FAB mass spectrometry of Ret‐P‐Man showed a parent ion at m /z 527 [MH] − and a fragment ion at m /z 259 [C 6 H 12 PO 9 ] − . The CAD‐MIKE spectra showed structurally significant fragment ions at m /z 442 and 361 for the [MH] − ion of GDP‐Man, and at m /z 509, 406, 364 and 241 for the [MH] − ion of Ret‐P‐Man. FAB and CAD‐MIKE spectra have been applied successfully to confirm the structure of Ret‐P‐Man made in vitro from Ret‐P and GDP‐Man.
