The mechanism of ion formation from methiomine under fast atom bombardment conditions shows similarities with those reported in secondary ion, laser desorption and field desorption mass spectrometry. Deuterium labelling has indicated that the mode of fragmentation of this compound upon fast atom bombardment closely resembles that observed under chemical ionization conditions using methane as reagent gas.
