title: Gas chromatographic retention indices of trimethylsilyl derivatives of terpene alcohols.
abstract: This paper presents the experimentally determined retention indices (RI(TMS)) for a set of 75 silylated terpenols (33 monoterpenols and 42 sesquiterpenols). The attempt was made to assess the dependence of RI(TMS) on RI (for non-silylated terpenols) and on RI(Ac) (for acetylated terpenols). Satisfactory linear regression parameters (RI(TMS)=b(0)+b(1)RI) were observed for tertiary substituted monoterpenols and primary or secondary substituted sesquiterpenols. The mass spectra of silylated terpenols that were not found in the available literature are in Supplementary information.
