The mass spectrometric behaviour of six human metabolites formed by hyroxylation in various positions of the .alpha.-ethyl group or/and on the phenyl ring of 3-trifluoromethyl-.alpha.-ethyl-benzhydrol (flumecinol) and seven related compounds has been studied. The electron impact mass (EI) spectra of these compounds show significant and characteristic effects of substituents, but many of them suffer from weakness or even from absence of the M+. peak owing to the very facile primary loss of the .alpha.-alipathic chain, i.e. no direct information can be obtained about the size of the molecule and that of this chain. It is demonstrated for derivatives possessing a hydroxylated .alpha.-ethyl group that the difficulties in structural characterization due to the lack or weakness of M+. and [M+H]+ peaks in their EI and chemical ionization mass spectra, respectively, can be overcome by studying their silylated or boronated derivatives. Furthermore, silylation enables us to obtain a clear base for distinction of the primary and secondary alcohols of this type.
