Mass spectra of trimethylsilyl derivatives of the following compounds, which are related to the biosynthesis of the cyanogenic glucoside dhurrin, are described: tyrosine, N-hydroxytyrosine, p-hydroxyphenylacetaldoxime, p-hydroxyphenylacetonitrile, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, tyramine, p-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid oxime, and p-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid. Accurate mass measurements and metastable transitions support the proposed fragmentation mechanisms. Based on the mass spectrometry data presented, a method is described by which compounds possibly involved as intermediates in the biosynthesis of cyanogenic glucosides can be identified in biosynthetic reaction mixtures.
