Abstract
The major components of an alkaloid-free, flue-cured, tobacco essential oil sample are isolated and identified. This is accomplished by utilizing modern hyphenated analytical methods. The instrumentation developed to accomplish this are an automated multidimensional gas chromatograph/mass spectrometer/flame ionization detector (MDGC/MS/FID) and a multidimensional gas chromatograph/matrix isolation/Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (MDGC/MI/FTIR). A total of 306 compounds is identified in the essential oil, of which 80 are found as tobacco constituents for the first time.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
