Gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric analysis of specific isomers of polychlorodibenzofurans. 1985

D Fung, and R K Boyd, and S Safe, and B G Chittim

The gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric characteristics of 26 congeners of polychlorinated dibenzofurans, previously characterized by specific synthetic routes and by standard spectroscopic techniques, have been evaluated. The electron impact mass spectra are not particularly isomer-specific, though 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzofuran is distinguishable on this basis from the three other tetrachloro isomers investigated in this work. Positive ion methane chemical ionization mass spectra do show a greater degree of isomer distinction, and are reasonably reproducible. Electron attachment negative ion spectral characteristics are also presented. Preliminary results on negative ion chemical ionization mass spectra, obtained using methane plus small amounts of oxygen as reagent gas, are reported.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007202 Indicators and Reagents Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents.
