Resumo
Herein, it is presented a methodology for the characterization of organosulfur compounds in asphalt cement (AC)
samples employing solid-phase extraction (SPE) associated with methylation reactions and positive-ion mode
electrospray Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (ESI(+)FT-ICR MS) and carbon-13
nuclear magnetic resonance (¹³C NMR) spectroscopy. Three AC samples were submitted to an SPE separation,
and the fractions obtained the original AC samples, and their maltenes were methylated and analyzed using the
ESI(+)FT-ICR MS. The ESI(+)FT-ICR MS ionized the sulfur fractions much better than the original samples,
detecting organosulfur compounds with a broader average molecular mass distribution (Mw). Several types of
sulfur compounds were detected, such as sulfides, disulfides, thiophenes, and dibenzothiophenes. Besides, the
ESI(+)FT-ICR data were compared with the ¹³C NMR (from model molecules analyses) and ESI(+)-Orbitrap MS.
The organosulfur chemical profile was correlated to the physical properties of AC samples. It was verified that
the samples with higher aromatic-character were less susceptible to aging test, while the one with more saturated-character presented more significant variation in their physical properties after the aging test.
