An atmospheric pressure ionization (API) source for a VG 7070E‐HF mass spectrometer has been built and successfully operated at an accelerating potential of 6 kV. Hydrated protons and hydrated organic ions formed in the API source can be either partially or completely disaggregated by collisionally induced dissociation before entering the mass analyzer. The protonated molecular ions of pinacolone and 2,4‐pentanedione can be fully separated (R=2800, m/z 101,
