Record 1 of 3

Record #:546
Class ID:2.14
Class Name:polydiene
Polymer:polybutadiene
Matrices:pencil lead [Note: No CAS]
dithranol (1143-38-0)
Salt:silver trifluoroacetate (AgTFA) (with both pencil lead and dithranol); lithium trifluoroacetate (LiTFA) (with pencil lead)
Solvent:tetrahydrofuran (THF)
RecipeDithranol as matrix and AgTFA as additive were prepared by dissolving the polymer in THF at a concentration of 10 g/L. A 10 μL aliquot of this solution was added to 10 μL of a 10 g/L matrix solution, and AgTFA as a MeOH solution (0.1 M) was added as cationization agent. A 1 μL aliquot of the resulting mixture was applied to a multistage target to evaporate the solvent and create a thin matrix/analyte film. In the case of pencil lead, a pencil was used to draw directly onto the target spot, ensuring that the entire surface was covered. Then, 1 μL of the sample solution was added on the top of the matrix using a pipet and left to dry in air. In some cases 1 μL of a LiTFA solution (0.1 M) was added.

Record 2 of 3

Record #:338
Class ID:2.14
Class Name:polydiene
Polymer:polybutadiene
Matrix:dithranol (1143-38-0)
Salt:silver trifluoracetate (AgTFA)
Solvent:tetrahydrofuran (THF)
RecipeSolutions of dithranol (20 mg/mL), end-functional polymer (10 mg/mL), and silver trifluoroacetate (10 mg/mL) were made in tetrahydrofuran (THF). These solutions were mixed in the ratio matrix: cationizing salt: polymer (10:1:2), and 0.5 µL of the solution was deposited on the sample holder.

Salt:CuI
Solvent:tetrahydrofuran (analyte), tertahydrofuran/water (salt)
Recipe[The analyte was] dissolved in THF (5 mg/mL), and then combined with a solution of CuI (10 mg/mL THF/H2O, 1 : 1, v/v) and a solution of retinoic acid matrix (50 mg/mL THF) in a 1 : 1 : 2 ratio (v/v/v), respectively.
