59. These masses are not isotopic but averaged due to the low resolution of the equipment in the range of 800-4000 Da. For 2a the calculated values for the averaged masses of the protonated dimer and monomer are 1366 and 2732, respectively. For 2b the calculated values are 1535 and 3069, respectively. Although the spectrometer was calibrated before the measurements, there is a slight difference (2-4 Da) between the calculated and the experimental values, which may due to technical problems encountered with the equipment in this mass range.
