Sample(s)
Conditions

Dissolve 10-15 mg sample in 0.8 mL solvent, then add 0.2 mL of the silylation reagent. The reaction mixture can be heated to 60-70 °C for up to 1 hour and can be analyzed directly. If TFA is used as a solvent, proceed as follows [M. Donike, J. Chromatogr. 85 (1973) 1-7]: dissolve 1-2 mg sample in 100 µL TFA. Dropwise add 0.9 mL of the silylating reagent. After cooling the sample can be chromatographed directly.

Note
Recommended application: carboxylic acids, alcohols, phenols, primary and secondary amines and amino acids used either alone or in combination with a catalyst (TMCS, REF 701280.201, TSIM; REF 701310.201) or another silylation reagent with or without solvent. The by-product N-methylheptafluorobutyric amide has a lower retention time than the silylating reagent. Especially useful for flame ionisation detection due to the large ratio of fluorine to silicon of 7:1, since degradation of the excess of MSHFBA does not produce SiO2 but volatile, non-corrosive silicon compounds.
