The most widely used ionization techniques in liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) are electrospray ionization (ESI), atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) and atmospheric pressure photoionization (APPI). All three provide user friendly coupling of LC to MS. Achieving optimal LC-MS conditions is not always easy, however, owing to the complexity of ionization processes and the many parameters affecting mass spectrometric sensitivity and chromatographic performance. The selection of eluent composition requires particular attention since a solvent that is optimal for analyte ionization often does not provide acceptable retention and resolution in LC. Compromises must then be made between ionization and chromatographic separation efficiencies. The review presents an overview of studies concerning the effect of eluent composition on the ionization efficiency of ESI, APCI and APPI in LC-MS. Solvent characteristics are discussed in the light of ionization theories, and selected analytical applications are described. The aim is to provide practical background information for the development and optimization of LC-MS methods. 相似文献

A novel analytical system for gas-chromatographic investigation of complex samples has been developed, that combines the advantages of several analytical principles to enhance the analytical information. Decomposition of high molecular weight structures is achieved by pyrolysis and a high separation capacity due to the chromatographic step provides both an universal as well as a selective and sensitive substance detection. The latter is achieved by simultaneously applying electron ionization quadrupole mass spectrometry (EI-QMS) for structural elucidation and [1 + 1]-resonance-enhanced-multi-photon ionization (REMPI) combined with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (ToFMS). The system has been evaluated and tested with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) standards. It was applied to crude oil samples for the first time. In such highly complex samples several thousands of compounds are present and the identification especially of low concentrated chemical species such as PAH or their polycyclic aromatic sulfur containing heterocyclic (PASH) derivatives is often difficult. Detection of unalkylated and alkylated PAH together with PASH is considerably enhanced by REMPI–ToFMS, at times revealing aromatic structures which are not observable by EI-QMS due to their low abundance. On the other hand, the databased structure proposals of the EI-QMS analysis are needed to confirm structural information and isomers distinction. The technique allows a complex structure analysis as well as selective assessment of aromatic substances in one measurement. Information about the content of sulfur containing compounds plays a significant role for the increase of efficiency in the processing of petroleum. 相似文献

Phosphate esters are important commercial products that have been used both as flame retardants and as plasticizers. To analyze these compounds by gas chromatographic mass spectrometry, it is important to understand the mass spectra of these compounds using various ionization modes. This paper is a systematic overview of the electron impact (EI), electron capture negative ionization (ECNI) and positive chemical ionization (PCI) mass spectra of 13 organophosphate esters. These data are useful for developing and optimizing analytical measurements. The EI spectra of these 13 compounds are dominated by ions such as H 4PO 4+, (M ? Cl) +, (M ? CH 2Cl) + or (M) + depending on specific chemical structures. The ECNI spectra are generally dominated by (M ? R) ?. The PCI spectra are mainly dominated by the protonated molecular ion (M + H) +. The branching of the alkyl substituents, the halogenation of the substituents and, for aromatic phosphate esters, ortho alkylation of the ring are all significant factors controlling the details of the fragmentation processes. EI provides the best sensitivity for the quantitative measurement of these compounds, but PCI and ECNI both have considerable qualitative selectivity. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

The coupling of glow discharges (GDs) as ion sources for time of flight mass spectrometry (TOFMS) chemical analysis has been extensively investigated during the last two decades. However, important instrumental advances in GD-TOFMS as well as demonstration of unique analytical applications (particularly quasi-simultaneous production of elemental, structural and molecular information from organics in gas phase, multielemental depth profile analysis with high depth resolution of layered materials, direct speciation in solid samples and identification of polymers) are rocketing in the last years.In the present review, instrumental developments and recent applications of GD-TOFMS are presented, both for the elemental and molecular direct solid analyses of materials and for analytes in gaseous phase (including permanent gases, vaporized compounds and GD-TOFMS uses as detector for gas chromatography). Also, GD-TOFMS analytical potential in important fields of modern research is critically discussed. 相似文献

Decomposition odour analysis involves the chemical profiling of volatile organic compounds produced by decomposing remains. This is important for areas of forensic science that rely on the detection of decomposition odour such as insect attraction to carrion, positive alerts of cadaver dogs to decomposing remains, and the development of field instrumentation for search and recovery procedures. Traditionally decomposition odour analysis has been performed using gas chromatography–quadrupole mass spectrometry (GC–qMS); however, the use of comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography–time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC×GC–TOFMS) is rapidly becoming more prevalent. The objective of this study was to compare GC–qMS and GC×GC–TOFMS for decomposition odour profiling based on inter-year replicate field studies using decomposing porcine remains. The increased peak capacity, sensitivity and selectivity afforded by GC×GC–TOFMS allowed peak co-elutions, chromatographic artefacts, and dynamic range to be more easily addressed and managed. Furthermore, the software associated with GC×GC–TOFMS provided several additional benefits including improved peak alignment between samples and increased consistency of reported results, overall allowing for additional statistical tests to be applied following data processing. Future GC–qMS results could be improved by implementing some of these software-associated procedures, potentially reducing the magnitude of variation observed between GC–qMS and GC×GC–TOFMS studies. One-dimensional GC analysis may also benefit substantially from coupling with TOFMS detection to provide an indirect increase in peak capacity using deconvolution. However, the wealth of information gained by using GC×GC–TOFMS in decomposition odour profiling is undoubtedly an asset in this field of research. 相似文献

Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins/dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs), some of which are extremely toxic, are present at low concentrations in incinerator flue gases. The on-line real-time measurement of these compounds is necessary, since these concentrations fluctuate drastically with the process conditions used. Supersonic jet/resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SSJ/REMPI/TOF-MS), which provides both high selectivity and sensitivity, appears suitable for application to the on-line real-time monitoring of PCDD/Fs. In this review, the resonant ionization wavelengths of PCDD/Fs and their precursors are given. Moreover, improvements in SSJ/REMPI/TOF-MS that lead to enhanced sensitivity and selectivity are presented. That is, novel ionization sources and advanced ionization schemes are reported for the sensitive measurement of PCDD/Fs and their precursors. Those techniques are advantageous for the trace analysis of these compounds. 相似文献

Gas chromatography/multiphoton ionization/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC/MPI/TOFMS) was utilized for analysis of a standard mixture sample containing 49 pesticides and 4 real samples using the third-harmonic emission (267 nm) of a femtosecond Ti:sapphire laser (100 fs) as the ionization source. A sample of a standard mixture of n-alkane was also measured for calibration of the retention time indices of the pesticides. Two photons are required for the excitation of n-alkane due to an absorption band located in the far ultraviolet region (140 nm). The n-alkane molecule in the excited state was subsequently ionized either directly or by absorbing another photon because of a high ionization potential. Due to a large excess of energy, the molecular ion was decomposed and formed many fragment ions. Compared to n-alkanes, most of the pesticides were softly ionized by the femtosecond laser; one photon was used for excitation and another was used for the subsequent ionization. The pesticides with no conjugated double bond had a lower ionization efficiency. The present analytical instrument was applied to several samples prepared from a variety of vegetables and a single fruit after pretreatment with solid-phase extraction. Three pesticides were found in these samples, although some of them were not detected by conventional GC/EI/MS–MS due to insufficient sensitivity and selectivity. 相似文献

Gas chromatography/supersonic jet/resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC/SSJ/REMPI/TOF-MS) was employed for isomer-selective determination of 2,4-xylenol in river and seawater samples. The sample containing 2,4-xylenol was measured using argon, rather than helium, as the GC carrier gas to cool the analyte molecule sufficiently. The instrumental detection limit (IDL) achieved at a flow rate of 1 mLmin(-1) was 14 pg. Although this value was comparable to the value (ca. 10 pg) obtained by gas chromatography/electron impact/quadrupole mass spectrometry (GC/EI/QMS). When the flow rate was increased to 8 mLmin(-1), interference from the 2,5-xylenol isomer was completely suppressed. The IDL was degraded to 83 or 160 pg at a flow rate of 5 or 8 mLmin(-1), respectively. The recovery of 2,4-xylenol from the river and the seawater samples was 85 and 93%, respectively. The time for analysis was only 10 min per one sample in GC/SSJ/REMPI/TOF-MS. These results suggest that GC/SSJ/REMPI/TOF-MS is useful for the selective measurement of 2,4-xylenol, which has been designated a Class I chemical substance in the Pollutant Release and Transfer Register (PRTR). 相似文献

Crude combwax of six various honey bee species have been analyzed by high-temperature gas chromatography (HTGC)-chemical ionization mass spectrometry after a two-step silylation procedure. An optimized chromatographic procedure, described previously, enables the separation of high-molecular mass lipid compounds resulting in a characteristic fingerprint of the combwaxes of different honeybee species. The coupling of HTGC to mass spectrometry requires appropriate instrumentation in order to achieve sufficient sensitivity at high elution temperatures and avoid loss of chromatographic resolution. Chemical ionization was carried out using methane as reagent gas in order to determine the molecular mass of the individual compounds by means of abundant quasi molecular ions. To confirm the presence of unsaturated wax esters, ammonia was used as reagent gas. More than 80 lipid constituents were separated and characterized by their mass spectra. Representative chemical ionization mass spectra of individual compounds are presented. Both, HTGC-flame ionization detection data and the results of the HTGC-mass spectrometric investigations enabled a rapid profiling of the individual classes of compounds in crude combwaxes. 相似文献

The continuous development in analytical instrumentation has brought the newly developed Orbitrap‐based gas chromatography / mass spectrometry (GC/MS) instrument into the forefront for the analysis of complex mixtures such as crude oil. Traditional instrumentation usually requires a choice to be made between mass resolving power or an efficient chromatographic separation, which ideally enables the distinction of structural isomers that is not possible by mass spectrometry alone. Now, these features can be combined, thus enabling a deeper understanding of the constituents of volatile samples on a molecular level. Although electron ionization is the most popular ionization method employed in GC/MS analysis, the need for softer ionization methods has led to the utilization of atmospheric pressure ionization sources. The last arrival to this family is the atmospheric pressure photoionization (APPI), which was originally developed for liquid chromatography / mass spectrometry (LC/MS). With a newly developed commercial GC‐APPI interface, it is possible to extend the characterization of unknown compounds. Here, first results about the capabilities of the GC/MS instrument under high or low energy EI or APPI are reported on a volatile gas condensate. The use of different ionization energies helps matching the low abundant molecular ions to the structurally important fragment ions. A broad range of compounds from polar to medium polar were successfully detected and complementary information regarding the analyte was obtained. 相似文献

A new method was developed for the analysis of pesticide residues in tobacco. The objective was to significantly increase the number of samples that can be processed by the laboratory and to enable the extension of the current coverage to additional pesticides. A new analytical approach was therefore defined based on two main axes, the automation of the sample preparation and the selectivity of the analyte detection using tandem mass spectrometry. This latter aspect reduces the stringency of the requirements placed on the clean-up of the extracts and on the chromatographic resolution when less selective detectors are used. The extraction of the analytes from the matrix is performed using the pressurized liquid extraction technique. Tobacco samples are extracted at elevated temperature and pressure (100 C and 100 atm; 1 atm = 101,325 Pa) using acetone as an extraction solvent. The resulting extract is then concentrated using a Vortex evaporator. Three different solid-phase extraction (SPE) procedures, adjusted to the chemical properties of the different active ingredients to be measured, are applied to the concentrated extract, thus leading to three extract fractions. The first fraction contains such main classes of active ingredients as organohalogenated and 2,6-dinitroaniline compounds while the second one collects the organophosphorus and acylalanines residues; these two fractions are analyzed by capillary gas chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry using negative chemical ionization and electron impact ionization in the positive mode, respectively. The third extract fraction gathers the N-methylcarbamates residues which are analyzed by HPLC with post-column derivatization and fluorescence detection. The different sample preparation stages from extraction to SPE clean-up have been automated through the use of recent analytical technologies. In combination with the analysis by tandem mass spectrometry, this provided a potential for a high sample throughput. 相似文献

Two-color (1+1') resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (REMPI/TOF-MS) combined with supersonic jet (SSJ) spectrometry has been demonstrated. The methodology uses a two-color laser beam consisting of a Stokes beam generated by stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) and a fundamental beam for the excitation and subsequent ionization of p-dichlorobenzene. The MPI signal was found to be substantially increased when a two-color laser beam was employed. This approach greatly simplifies the analytical system and reduces the cost of the instrumentation required for two-color ionization. The potential advantage of applying this method for the analysis of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin (PCDD) and polychlorinated dibenzofuran (PCDF) emitted from an incinerator is discussed. 相似文献

Comprehensive two‐dimensional gas chromatography (GC × GC) coupled to time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry is a powerful separation tool for complex petroleum product analysis. However, the most commonly used electron ionization (EI) technique often makes the identification of the majority of hydrocarbons impossible due to the exhaustive fragmentation and lack of molecular ion preservation, prompting the need of soft‐ionization energies. In this study, three different soft‐ionization techniques including photo ionization (PI), chemical ionization (CI), and field ionization (FI) were compared against EI to elucidate their relative capabilities to reveal different base oil hydrocarbon classes. Compared with EI (70 eV), PI (10.8 eV) retained significant molecular ion (M +·) information for a large number of isomeric species including branched‐alkanes and saturated monocyclic hydrocarbons along with unique fragmentation patterns. However, for bicyclic/polycyclic naphthenic and aromatic compounds, EI played upper hand by retaining molecular as well as fragment ions to identify the species, whereas PI exhibited mainly molecular ion signals. On the other hand, CI revealed selectivity towards different base oil groups, particularly for steranes, sulfur‐containing thiophenes, and esters, yielding protonated molecular ions (M + H) + for unsaturated and hydride abstracted ions (M‐H +) for saturated hydrocarbons. FI, as expected, generated intact molecular ions (M +·) irrespective to the base oil chemical classes. It allowed elemental composition by TOFMS with a mass resolving power up to 8000 (FWHM) and a mass accuracy of 1 mDa, leading to the calculation of heteroatomic content, double bond equivalency, and carbon number of the compounds. The qualitative and quantitative results presented herein offer a unique perspective into the detailed comparison of different ionization techniques corresponding to several hydrocarbon classes. 相似文献

A comparison between two analytical techniques is presented using trans-resveratrol as analyte and vine leaf as sample. The employed methods were: (a) laser desorption followed by resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization coupled with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LD-REMPI-TOFMS), and (b) reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) with fluorescence detection. While both techniques show a similar range of linearity and reproducibility, marked differences were found in their sensitivity and required time for a single analysis. For example: (i) the chromatographic method required considerable less time (30min) than the REMPI method to implement the analysis, (ii) the detection and quantification limits of the REMPI technique were 2.1 and 6.7 microg L(-1), respectively, while for the chromatographic method they were ten times minor, i.e. 20 and 67 microg L(-1), respectively. A critical assessment including advantages and drawbacks of each technique is presented. 相似文献

The VUV absorption spectrum of fenchone is re-examined using synchrotron radiation Fourier transform spectrometry, revealing new vibrational structure. Picosecond laser (2+1) resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) spectroscopy complements this, providing an alternative view of the 3 spd Rydberg excitation region. These spectra display broadly similar appearance, with minor differences that are largely explained by referring to calculated one- and two-photon electronic excitation cross-sections. Both show good agreement with Franck-Condon simulations of the relevant vibrational structures. Parent ion REMPI ionization yields with both femtosecond and picosecond excitation laser pulses are studied as a function of laser polarization and intensity, the latter providing insight into the relative two-photon excitation and one-photon ionization rates. The experimental circular-linear dichroism observed in the parent ion yields varies strongly between the 3 s and 3 p Rydberg states, in good overall agreement with the calculated two-photon excitation circular-linear dichroism, while corroborating other evidence that the 3pz sub-state plays no more than a very minor role in the (2+1) REMPI spectrum. Vibrationally resolved photoelectron spectra are recorded with picosecond pulse duration (2+1) REMPI at selected intermediate vibrational excitations. The 3 s intermediate state displays a very strong Δ v=0 propensity on ionization, but the 3 p intermediate evidences more complex vibronic dynamics, and we infer some 3 p→3 s internal conversion prior to ionization. 相似文献

Summary. The separation of pyrimidine derivatives by capillary electrochromatography (CEC) using either UV or mass spectrometric detection
is described. For UV detection an aqueous phosphate carrier electrolyte containing acetonitrile is employed. The results are
compared to the analysis of the same compounds by micellar electrokinetic chromatography in terms of selectivity, migration
times, linearity, and detection limits.
For the combination of CEC and mass spectrometry (MS) an inexpensive way to couple commercially available instruments is presented;
the interface consists of an electrically grounded stainless steel connector (containing a stainless steel frit) serving as
the electrode and coupling the CEC capillary with a fused silica transfer capillary to the MS instrument. Alternatively, a
PEEK adapter combining the CEC capillary and a grounded stainless steel transfer capillary serving as the electrode is employed.
To avoid the formation of hydrogen gas at the coupling piece or the transfer capillary, p-benzoquinone is added to the carrier electrolyte consisting of aqueous ammonium acetate and acetonitrile.
