1.2. The compound commonly used for tuning and calibration of mass spectrometers is PFTBA, a trade name for perfluorotri- n-butylamine, (CF3CF2CF2CF2)3N. This compound exhibits peaks of at least moderate intensity over the entire mass range normally used in GC/MS work (Figure 1.29). The most prominent Figure 1.29. Mass spectrum of perfluorotributylamine (PFTBA; Problem 1.2). peaks in the spectrum of PFTBA occur at m/z31,69,100,114,119,131,219, 264,414,464,502,576, and 614 . Devise elemental compositions (and, if possible, hypothesize structures) for the ions that correspond to each of these peaks
