I would like to detect pontacyl violet 6R by GCMS. In full scan, i am not getting any peaks by using DB5 column. What is the best derivetization reagent to get the peak in GCMS.

I can find no physical properties on this. It has a high MW of 518.  It might not even be doable by GC/MS. Might need an HPLC method.

Hello,

Due to the age of this forum post I’ve marked this as resolved.  If you are able to please reply to this thread and let us know how the problem was solved. 

Thanks!
