Thin-layer chromatography of the MBTH derivatives of some aliphatic aldehydes.
A rapid, simple method for resolution and detection of mixtures of aliphatic aldehyde by thin-layer chromatography of their MBTH derivatives is proposed. Less than 1 mg l . levels of each aldehyde in the original aqueous solution can be detected.
