Interpreting the fragmentation pattern of the mass spectrum of E-pent-2-ene and Z-pent-2-ene

The fragmentation patterns are quite similar so the following notes apply to both spectra.

[M]+ is the molecular ion peak with an m/z of 70 corresponding to [C5H10]+, the original E-pent-2-ene and Z-pent-2-ene molecule minus an electron, [CH3CH2CH=CHCH3]+.

The small M+1 peak at m/z 71, corresponds to an ionised E-pent-2-ene and Z-pent-2-ene molecule with one 13C atom in it i.e. an ionised E-pent-2-ene and Z-pent-2-ene molecule of formula 13C12C4H10

Identifying the species giving the most prominent peaks (apart from M) in the fragmentation pattern of E-pent-2-ene and Z-pent-2-ene.

m/z value of [fragment]+ 56 55 55 53
[molecular fragment]+ [C4H8]+ [CH2CH=CHCH3]+ [CH3CH2CH=CH]+ [C4H5]+
m/z value of [fragment]+ 42 41 39 29 27 39 29 27
[molecular fragment]+ [C3H6]+ [C3H5]+ [C3H3]+ [CH3CH2]+ [C2H3]+ [C3H3]+ [CH3CH2]+ [C2H3]+

Analysing and explaining the principal ions in the fragmentation pattern of the mass spectrum of E-pent-2-ene and Z-pent-2-ene

Equations to explain the most abundant ion peaks of E-pent-2-ene and Z-pent-2-ene

Formation of m/z 55 ion:

[CH3CH2CH=CHCH3]+  ===>  [CH3CH2CH=CH]+  +  CH3

via C-C bond chain scission, similarly ...

[CH3CH2CH=CHCH3]+  ===>  [CH2CH=CHCH3]+  +  CH3

The m/z 55 ion is the base peak ion, the most abundant and 'stable' ion fragment.

Formation of m/z 29 ion: [CH3CH2CH=CHCH3]+  ===>  [CH3CH2]+  +  CH=CHCH3]
