Information on the Compounds Investigated
Muscalure: Z 9-Tricosene, is a sex pheromone
produce by female house flies (Musca domestica).
Muscalure in combination with other fecal odors
provides maximum attraction for male flies. It is
used as a pesticide is in combination with fly paper
or other traps. Z 9-Tricosene also serves as a
communication pheromone in the waggle dance of
bees. The synthetic sample also contains a small
amount of E 9-Tricosene.
Empenthrin: (E)-(RS)-1-ethynyl-2-methylpent-2-enyl
(1RS)-cis-trans-2,2-dimethyl-3-(2-methylprop-1-enyl)cyclopropane-carboxylate is a synthetic pyrethrin used as a
pesticide. It has a broad spectrum of activity on various
flying insects but relatively low mammalian toxicity. It
consists of a racemic mixture of up to 4 possible
diasteriomers. At least three of the diasteriomers were
detected in the commercial product.

Fundamentals of Correlation Gas Chromatography- Vaporization Enthalpy
1. The residence time of a compound on the column, ta, is inversely proportional
the compounds vapor pressure (ta = retention time of a solute – retention time of
a non-retained reference , ta = t – tnrr (often the solvent)
2. A plot of ln(to/ta), where to is the reference time, 1 min, versus 1/T over a 30 K
temperature range results in a straight line
3. The slope of the line, -∆Htrn(Tm)/R, is the enthalpy of transfer of the analyte from
the column to the gas phase
4. The enthalpy of transfer is related to the vaporization enthalpy (∆lgH(T) by the
following equation where ∆Hsln represents the enthalpy of interaction of the
solute with the column: ∆Htrn(Tm) = ∆lgH (Tm) + ∆Hsln (Tm)
5. If a series of standards are properly selected, a second plot of ∆lgH(298.15 K)
versus ∆Htrn(Tm) of the standards is also linear and the equation of the line can
be used to evaluate the vaporization enthalpy of any additional targets included
in the mixture
6. Appropriate standards with known vaporization enthalpies generally include
compounds with the same number and type of functionality as the targets. The
structure of the hydrocabon portion of the molecule may vary
Fundamentals of Correlation Gas Chromatography - Vapor Pressure
Use of appropriate standards with known vapor pressures also results in linear plots
between ln(p/po) and ln(to/ta)
The equation of the line plus values of ln(to/ta) of the targets results in their vapor
pressures
Performed over a range of temperatures can provide the vapor pressure temperature
profile of the targets

ln (p/po) = (1-Tnb/T)exp(Ao +A1T + A2T2)

Evaluation of Empenthrin
The vapor pressure of numerous substances have been measured by the gas
chromatography - retention time method 1 which differs from the method just
discussed.
Vapor pressure: Gas Chromatography - Retention Time Method
The vapor pressure - retention time method consists in ploting ln[(tr)tar/(tr)ref ]T against
ln(pref,,T) at different temperatures resulting in the following linear relationship:
ln[(tr)tar/(tr)ref ]T = [1- (lgH)tar/(lgH)ref] ln(p ref, T) - C
(tr)tar and lgH)tar are the relative retention time and vaporization enthalpy of the target
(tr)ref and lgH)ref refer to the corresponding properties of the reference materials.
The slope and intercept of the line obtained is given by [1- (lgH)tar/(lgH)ref] and - C
The vapor pressure of the target at T = 298.15 K is obtained from:
ln(ptar, 298.15 K/Pa) = [(lgH)tar/(lgH)ref] ln(p ref, 298.15 K/Pa) + C

It is not clear well phthalate diesters can serve as standards to these pyrethrinoids
which in addition to being single esters have a variety of other functional groups..
