Résumé

The electrospray mass spectrometric characterization of neutral dendrons with a carboxylic acid function or a t-butyl ester moiety at the central point and up to eight peripheral C60 subunits has been performed and is described in detail. Molecules bearing a carboxylic acid group at the center turned out to be preferentially ionized by deprotonation, whereas those with a t-butyl ester head group were ionized by reduction of the C60 units in the infusion capillary of the electrospray source.
