Table 3. Standardized R,F value8 of amines
Rp values are related to those of dimethylamine (in bold type), as described in the text. The solvent systems are designated
by letters as follows: A, butan-1-ol-acetic acid-water; B, butan-1-ol-acetic acid-water-pyridine; C, 2-methoxyethanol-
propionic acid-water; D, pyridine-pentan-1-ol-water; E, butan-l-ol-conc. HCl-water. The spray reagents are abbreviated
as follows: I2, iodine vapour; NQS, Folin's reagent; NCN, ninhydrin-Cu(NO)g; FCNP, alkaline ferricyanide-nitroprusside;
EHR, Ehrlich's reagent; IS, isatin; UV, fluorescence under u.v. light; NN, diazotized p-anisidine--ulphanilamide; JAF,
alkaline picric acid; NESS, Nessler's reagent; SAKA, Sakaguchi's reagent; IP, potassium iodoplatinate; for details of solvents
and spray reagents see text. Numerical colour values refer to those on the 'Derwent' colour chart (see text and Reio, 1958).
Amines were applied to the paper as 0-5 % solutions of their salts (mainly the hydrochlorides, otherwise the bitartrates and
acid citrates) in 50 % ethanol.

* Ammonia could only be detected in high concentrations.
t Pyridine, some tertiary and some aromatic amines are difficult to detect, except at high concentrations, after being run in solvents
containing pyridine.
: Cysteamine gave the same colours and had the same RB values as cystamine, and it is assumed that it was rapidly oxidized to
cystamine after application to the paper.
§ The methylated guanidines always gave two spots in this solvent.
11 The dimethylureas were detectable only in high concentrations.
