Fred Warren McLafferty (May 11, 1923 – December 26, 2021) was an American chemist known for his work in mass spectrometry. He was best known for the McLafferty rearrangement reaction that was observed with mass spectrometry.[2] With Roland Gohlke, he pioneered the technique of gas chromatography–mass spectrometry.[3] He is also known for electron capture dissociation, a method of fragmenting gas phase ions.[4] In 1982, he became a member of the National Academy of Sciences.

McLafferty died on December 26, 2021 in Ithaca, New York at the age of 98.[5]
