The electron ionization (EI) fragmentation of nitro‐ β , β ‐dihalostyrenes depends strongly on the specific halogens present as well as on the position of the nitro group. β , β ‐Difluorostyrenes yielded mainly fluoroacetylene ions as the base peaks and o ‐nitro‐ β , β ‐dihalostyrene possibly furnished the ion with a structure similar to that of benzo[ a ]isoxazole (11). The structural identity of the ion was verified by comparing the collision‐induced dissociation (CID) spectra of m/z 119 ions from p ‐ and o ‐nitro‐ β , β ‐difluorostyrene, o ‐nitro‐ β , β ‐dibromostyrene and compound 11.
