title: Retention behavior of large polycyclic aromatics in bonded-phase high-performance liquid chromatography.
abstract: The retention behavior of 31 large polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons was studied on polymeric octadecyl-bonded columns, with methanol-dichloromethane mobile phases. Three types of elution behavior were observed, dependent on the degree of intramolecular strain in the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.
