  1. The names of the components are in order of their elution from the Rtx-5MS column
  2. Identification was based on comparison of the compounds’ mass spectral data (MS) and retention indices (RI) with those of NIST Mass Spectral Library (2017), Wiley Registry of Mass Spectral Data 8th edition and Adams
