The electron impact mass spectra of 1‐phenyl‐2‐propen‐1‐ol and its specifically deuterated analogues have been investigated. Most of the decomposition pathways involve skeletal rearrangements or hydrogen atom transfers, such that a rearrangement of the excited molecular ions of 1‐phenyl‐2‐propen‐1‐ol to molecular ions of cinnamic alcohol and/or cinnamaldehyde can be anticipated.
