Chromato-mass-spectrometric identification using partition coefficients in the system of hexane-2,2,2-trifluoroethanol

An additional characteristic of organic compounds, the partition coefficients in the heterophase solvent system n-hexane-2,2,2-trifluoroethanol, is shown to be useful for refining the results of chromatographic and gas chromatography-mass spectrometric identification. This opportunity is the most important for compounds that were not yet characterized by either mass spectra or chromatographic retention indices.
