✦ Synopsis
Resonance-enhanced multi-photon ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (REMPIITOFMS) has been applied to the detection of volatiles in the headspace of brewed coffee and in the coffee roasting process-gas. A frequency quadrupled Nd : YAG laser (266 nm) was used for REMPI ionization (REMPI@266nm) of the volatiles in an effusive molecular beam inside the ion source of a linear TOF mass spectrometer. A special sampling system provided a time correlated sampling. Under these circumstances REMPI@266nm is highly selective for ionization of phenolic compounds. Several phenolic compounds, such as the flavour-active 4-vinylguaiacol, can be detected in the headspace of coffee brew as well as in the roast off-gas with the application of this approach.
