Abstract

Abstract1‐Nitropyrene‐d9, 1,3‐dinitropyrene‐d8, 1,6‐dinitropyrene‐d8, and 1,8‐dinitropyrene‐d8, used as internal standards for the determination of nitropolycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (NPAH) in simple and complex mixtures, and required for GC/MS measurements used in the certification of NBS Standard Reference Material (SRM) 1596 (a mixture of nitropyrenes), were synthesized in one step from commercially available pyrene‐d10 and nitric acid‐d1. The electron impact mass spectra and isotopic purity of 1‐nitropyrene‐d9 and the deuterated dinitropyrenes were determined; the compounds were characterized by gas chromatpgraphy‐mass spectrometry (GC‐MS) and by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
