Abstract: | We report the linear retention indices of the 14 methylnitro-naphthalenes on three high resolution capillary columns and their electron impact mass spectra. The analyses of the methylnitro-naphthalenes in an ambient air sample by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry with multiple ion detection utilizing 5% phenylmethylsilicone, 50% phenylmethylsilicone, and smectic columns are shown. |
