Abstract

The invention relates to a process for the on-line analysis of a reactive gas mixture, in particular of a gas mixture comprising ketene and/or diketene and/or acetic anhydride and/or acetic acid, which gas mixture is situated in a vessel, which comprises expanding a portion of the gas mixture instantaneously into a sampling line via a probe which is integrated into the vessel and which has an orifice whose clear cross sectional area is less than or equal to 1 mm.sup.2 and feeding it to a mass-spectrometric analysis.
