Electron impact mass spectra were measured by high temperature high resolution gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HT-HRGC-MS) for three homologous series of high molecular weight compounds present in the Amazonian plants Marupa (Simaruba amara) and Brazil nut (Bertholettia excelsa). Based on their mass spectra, the compounds were identified as three wax ester series of alpha-tocopherol (vitamin E), beta-tocopherol and phytol (2,6,10,14-tetramethylhexadec-14-en-16-ol). The interpretations are supported by high resolution mass spectrometry and GC retention indices of authentic standards.
