Abstract The types of ion occurring in the field desorption mass spectra of inorganic and organic salts are discussed. In contrast to general experience with field desorption mass spectrometry molecular ions are either absent or of low intensity. The energetically and kindetically favoured process of cluster formation, however, generates ions from which the molecular structure can be easily derved. Some specific aspects for the analyses of salts by field desrption mass spectrometry are outlined.
