ABSTRACT
Fragmentation and supramolecular aggregation induced during the laser desorption/ionization (LDI) of four chlorodiaminotriazines (simazine, atrazine, terbutylazine and propazine) have been investigated. The laser wavelength employed (266 nm) lies within the first absorption band of the four triazines. The main fragmentation channel observed involves the prompt cleavage of the Cl atom, followed by partial or total fragmentation of the side alkyl chains. Breakage of the triazinic ring becomes efficient at moderate laser powers; however, the deamination of the triazine is not observed to take place. In addition, the formation of both covalent and non-covalent triazinic aggregates in the desorption plume is found to be particularly efficient. Aggregates as large as heptamers are neatly detected, with the observation that those with the most intense signal involve the dechlorinated triazinic fragment. Both aggregation and fragmentation are largely suppressed upon dilution of the triazine under matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization conditions.
