Close the spectrum for 1-isopropyl-2-methylbenzene and select the spectrum for 3-butenol. What is the m/z of the molecular ion peak? What is the m/z of the base peak? What other fragment peaks can you identify? Draw at least two fragmentation patterns. Please explain how you came up with these values.

The mass spectrum of 3-methyl-2-butanol has a base peak at m/z = 45. Propose a structure corresponding to this fragment and write a mechanism for its formation. The molecular ion m/z = 88 does not appear on this spectrum. Hint: Start by subtracting the base peak from the molecular ion peak to determine the molecular weight of the fragment that was lost.

The mass spectrum of phosphoryl chloride, $\mathrm{POF}_{3}$ is illustrated here. (a) Identify the cation fragment at a $m / Z$ ratio of 85. (b) Identify the cation fragment at a $m / Z$ ratio of 69. (c) Which two peaks in the mass spectrum provide evidence that the oxygen atom is connected to the phosphorus atom and is not connected to any of the three fluorine atoms?
