Notes:
Further applications of fused silica capillary columns (FSCC) to the analysis of environmental samples are presented. The chromatographic behavior (RT, RRT) of organic compounds of environmental significance not listed as Consent Decree Priority Pollutants is investigated on an SE-54 FSCC. Retention indices (RRT) and mass spectral response factors (RF) are presented for a total of 28 compounds including a number of chloro- and nitro-substituted anilines, alkylpyridines, and alkylquinoline derivatives. The direct application of the FSCC/MS interface to the analysis of these compounds in actual environmental samples is presented, including vent emissions from a fungicide manufacturing process, and contaminated soil and water samples from two metropolitan Boston construction sites.
