The conjugated bile acids taurochenodeoxycholate and taurodeoxycholate are indistinguishable from analysis of their fast‐atom bombardment spectra. Both the positive‐ and negative‐ion spectra show prominent pseudomolecular ions, but little fragmentation. Collision‐induced dissociation of the negative pseudomolecular ions reveal structural differences between the two isomers which are evident in the resultant daughter‐ion spectra. Thus the two isomers can be differentiated.
