Abstract

Tris (4-chlorophenyl)methanol (TCP) and tris(4-chlorophenyl)methane (TCPMe) were determined in aquatic organisms and sediment by a method based on Soxhlet extraction, gel permeation chromatography, fractionation over silica and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) analysis. TCPMe was identified as the 4-substituted isomer after synthesis of this compound. TCP could be determined by GC/MS with negative chemical ionistation (GC/NCI-MS) with a detection limit of 0.02 g kg
