Mass Spectrometry

This process is an instrumental method in which a sample is changed to fast moving positive ions by electron bombardment. The charged particles vary due to their different mass to charge ratio and are estimated with the help of this difference. It is also called mass spectroscopy.

Question

The mass spectrum of the following compound shows fragments at m/z
= 127, 113, and 85. Propose structures for the ions that give rise to these
peaks.
