Advantages of Alkali Metal Adduct Formation in Cyclic Ion Mobility‐Mass Spectrometry of O‐Methylated Cyclodextrin Isomers—Separation and Crossring Fragmentation

Chemistry–Methods, Volume 6, Issue 6, June 2026.
Cyclic ion mobility–tandem mass spectrometry (cIM‐MS/MS) enables rapid differentiation of O‐methylated cyclodextrin (MeCD) regioisomers. The method separates 2,3‐ and 2,6‐DIMEB (heptakis‐2,3‐ and ‐2,6‐di‐O‐methyl‐β‐cyclodextrins) and identifies them via characteristic crossring fragmentation.
