| An ion that reacts to form particular product ions. The reaction could be unimolecular dissociation, an ion/molecule reaction, or involve simply isomerization (change in connectivity) or change in the number of charges. The older gender-specific term parent ion ion is not recommended. |
| Considered between 2004 and 2006 but not included in the 2006 PAC submission |
