In the 70 e V electron impact mass spectra of a series of alkyldiphenylphosphine oxides (Rϕ 2 PO, R = Me, Et, n ‐Pr, i‐Pr, n ‐Bu, i‐Bu, t ‐Bu, neopentyl, n ‐decyl), molecular ions of low abundance are observed and [M + H] + ions are formed to a small extent at high sample pressures. The major ions include [ϕ 2 PO] + , [ϕ 2 POH] + ; [ϕ 2 CH 2 PO] + and [ϕ 2 CH 2 POH] + which are formed by rearrangement and cleavage processes. The chemical ionization mass spectra obtained with methane and isobutane reagents consist of [M + H] + ions. The proton affinity of Rϕ 2 PO was found to be 219 ± 2.5 kcal mol −1 .
