title: Ion pairing techniques: compatibility with on-line liquid chromatography--mass spectrometry.
abstract: The mass spectrometric properties of a series of model ion pairs were examined. In the cases studied it was possible to vaporize the ion pair consituents and to produce spectra corresponding to those of the unpaired materials. These findings offer a convenient means for derivatizing certain ionic compounds and demonstrate the feasibility of analyzing ionic species by on-line liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.
