Abstract

Analysis of trimethyl carboxyphosphate samples by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry, using typical conditions resulted in significant decomposition of the analyte. Optimization of injection conditions, including conditioning of the injection port liner, produced a dramatic increase in observed peak areas and afforded an effective method for detection of trimethyl carboxyphosphate at the <1μg mL⁻¹ level.
