Abstract
GAS chromatography has been employed in separating numerous types of compounds, but has not yet been applied to the alkaloids, a field where it might find particular utility. We wish to report preliminary results clearly indicating the usefulness of gas chromatography in the study of the tobacco alkaloids. Other families of alkaloids having slight volatility and good thermal stability may also prove to be separable under similar conditions.
