Notes. The relative abundance to HMT of the derivatives is shown in each experiment. Experiments 1 and 2 were performed with the same composition and similar storage time. Experiments 3 and 4, with the same composition, were performed to compare the effect of storage time. Experiment 5 was selected as a standard.
