Standard mixture is composed of: 2-methyl furan, Furfuryl Alcohol, Shikimic Acid, Vanillic Acid, P-Cresol, 3,5-dimethoxy toluene, Eugenol, 5- (hydroxymethel) furfural, Syringol, Apocynin, Levoglucosan, Syringaldehyde, Acetosyringone, Coniferyl Aldehyde, Pyrene Pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass has shown promise as an alternative energy source to fossil fuels. Comprehensive characterization of biomass pyrolyzates is critical for producing high quality biofuels. Traditional GC-EI-MS has many limitations, especially in identifying the compounds that are not in the database. Dopant assisted atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (dAPCI) coupled to GC-TOFMS is a complementary tool; however, structural information is limited. Exploring Structural Information using In-source CID on Micropyrolyzer-GC-dAPCI-TOF Mass Spectrometry Nathan R. Bond 1 ; Daniel P. Cole 1 ; Carolyn P. Hutchinson 1 ; Young Jin Lee 1 1 Department of Chemistry, Iowa State University, Ames, IA Overview Results To explore the use of in-source CID for structural analysis of biomass pyrolyzates in Py-GC-dAPCI-TOFMS. Instrumentation Materials Standards are obtained from Sigma Aldrich (see first chromatograph) Standard mix is prepared at 1 mM per compound with 5 μL injection. Methods Red oak pyrolysis: 500° C on Frontier micropyrolyzer. GC programing: Oven temp. held at 35 ° for 5 min, increased at 4 ° per min to 260 ° , and held for 5 min. Standard condition: Fragmenter -95V, Skimmer -65V Fragmentation conditions: Fragmenter -160V, Skimmer -145V Experimental Conclusions Autosampler or micropyrolyzer TOF MS Agilent 6200 series Ammonia gas APCI interface GC DB-1701 column (J& W, 30 m x 0.25 mm x 0.25 μm) Understanding MS/MS of standard compounds allows to interpret fragmentation pattern of unknowns. Most ammonium adducts are resulted in the loss of ion signals in fragmentation condition. Thus, it is not effective for levoglucosan or other cellulose pyrolysis products.

Overview Results

• To explore the use of in-source CID for structural analysis of biomass pyrolyzates in Py-GC-dAPCI-TOFMS.

Instrumentation

Materials • Standards are obtained from Sigma Aldrich (see first chromatograph) • Standard mix is prepared at 1 mM per compound with 5 μL injection. Methods • Red oak pyrolysis: 500°C on Frontier micropyrolyzer. • GC programing: Oven temp. held at 35° for 5 min, increased at

4° per min to 260°, and held for 5 min. • Standard condition: Fragmenter -95V, Skimmer -65V • Fragmentation conditions: Fragmenter -160V, Skimmer -145V

• Understanding MS/MS of standard compounds allows to interpret fragmentation pattern of unknowns.

• Most ammonium adducts are resulted in the loss of ion signals in fragmentation condition. Thus, it is not effective for levoglucosan or other cellulose pyrolysis products.

Acknowledgements Future Direction

• Test tentative identifications against standards • Run replicate experiment • Study the effect of changing other parameters • Examine other standard compounds to observe

fragmentation patterns
