Title: Determination of PAH in SRM 1582, Wilmington crude oil

Abstract

The concentrations of phenanthrene, fluoranthene, pyrene, benz(a)anthracene, benzo(a)pyrene, and perylene have been measured in SRM 1582 using the sequential HPLC procedure that was used in the certification PAH in SRM 1580, ''Organics in Shale Oil''. Quantification was accomplished through use of perdeuterated internal standards which were spiked into the oil sample at concentrations similar to that of the analyte compounds. The instrumentation used in these analyses is listed in Table I. The internal standard used for each analyte is identified in Table II. Perdeuterated analogs of the parent PAH serve as excellent internal standards because they have the same number of aromatic carbons and therefore co-elute on the aminosilane column. The perdeuterated PAH compound is resolved chromatographically from the parent PAH compound on the C/sub 18/ column, with the internal standard eluting just prior to the parent. The perdeuterated and parent compounds have similar fluorescence excitation and emission spectra as shown by the fact that their relative response factors are close to unity. Calibration solutions containing both the internal standard and analyte compounds were prepared for each compound to be determined. The concentration of the analyte compound in these solutions was routinely verified by comparison with SRM 1647. 1 ref.,more » 8 tabs.« less
