Notes:
Detection and identification of low levels (≤200 ppb) of free β-propiolactone in complex biological mixtures were achieved through in situ chemical derivatization and subsequent gas chromatographic mass spectrometric determination of the products. β-Propiolactone, when reacted with octadecylamine, followed by trimethylsilylation, yielded a derivative which exhibited both good gas chromatographic characteristics and highly interpretable mass spectrometric data.
