Reliable identification of new psychoactive substances of 2-(2-methylaminopropyl)benzofuran and 6-(2-methylaminopropyl)benzofuran is problematic when analyzing by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry method. It found that these two isomers can be reliably differentiated by MS/MS spectra obtained by collision-induced dissociation of their protonated molecules.
