The molecular ion of the N‐methyl ortho ‐nitro‐ para ‐toluidine (I) readily eliminates H 3 O. The sources of the H atoms lost were proved by deuterium labeling to be an HNCH 3 group as well as, probably, the C‐methyl group of the aromatic ring. The interaction between the N‐methyl and nitro groups in I also leads to the expulsion of CH 3 O 2 from the molecular ion.
