The mass spectra of ten complexes derived from 3,3,3‐trifluoroprop‐1‐yne, namely (CF 3 CCH)CO 2 (CO) 6 , (CF 3 CCH) [πC 5 H 5 Ni] 2 , (CF 3 CCH) 3 Co 2 (CO) 4 , CF 3 CH 2 C[Co(CO) 3 ] 3 ,are discussed in terms of their structures. The major processes observed can be satisfactorily explained in terms of (i) loss of carbonyl groups, if present; (ii) loss of one fluorine atom from the parention (iii) elimination of neutral metal fluorides, with ligand transfer reactions in the case of the iron complexes; (iv) elimination of neutral fluorocarbon molecules.
