Determination of Benzene, Cyclohexane, and Methylcyclopentane by Mass Spectrometer

Review - Petroleum

“…that fractionation by distillation into at least four cuts is necessary and the largest useful matrix is of the fifteenth order. Meyerson (129) determined benzene, cyclohexane, and methylcyclopentane in a Ce distillation fraction by mass spectrometry from the peaks at mass number 78, 84, and 69, respectively. Hammer and Roe (62) described optimum conditions for determining cyclohexane in petroleum concentrates from the infrared spectrum at 11.0 to 12.0 microns.…”
