Overview
Provides comprehensive coverage of the interpretation of LC–MS–MS mass spectra of 1300 drugs and pesticides Provides a general discussion on the fragmentation of even-electron ions (protonated and deprotonated molecules) in both positive-ion and negative-ion modes This is the reference book for the interpretation of MS–MS mass spectra of small organic molecules Covers related therapeutic classes of compounds such as drugs for cardiovascular diseases, psychotropic compounds, drugs of abuse and designer drugs, antimicrobials, among many others Covers general fragmentation rule as well as specific fragmentation pathways for many chemical functional groups Gives an introduction to MS technology, mass spectral terminology, information contained in mass spectra, and to the identification strategies used for different types of unknowns

Reviews
'The present book is a needed contribution in the field of tandem mass spectrometry of low molecular weight compounds in particular for the fragmentation of even electron ions formed by popular soft ionization techniques such as electrospray. The five chapters provide comprehensive insights of MS/MS spectra acquisition, characterization and interpretation. It is a unique resource to any scientist using LCMS/ MS for qualitative and quantitative analysis of drugs and pesticides.' Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, November 2017
