Molecular Modelling in Chromatostructural Analysis: A New Approach to the GC/MS Study of Isomers

The importance of gas-solid chromatography as a source of additional data for the positive structural elucidation of novel isomers by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry is discussed. As an example, a mixture of 11 isomers of perhydroanthracene and perhydrophenanthrene has been considered. The rete...
