Abstract: In this paper the structure and properties of N-nitrosodimethylamine(NDMA) were studied by means of chemical ionization mass spectrometry(CIMS) and quantum chemical calculation. The protonated dimer ion of NDMAis observed and the geometries of the corresponding ions are optimized by using CNDO/2 method in the CIMS. The forming pathway and broken bond mechanism of protonated ions were explained theoretically. We have also analyzed the electrostatic potentials of NDMAand (NDMA)H+ as well as tried to explain the carcinogenic machanicm.
