Not necessarily. The indications may derive from multiple gases, with
unrelated properties. Farooq has proposed an impurity. Perhaps one
should go further and consider multiple components at real, non-impurity
levels.
Like him, I considered gc/ms. No separation is necessary as a
preliminary step. Just shoot some of the gas into the injector port, let
it come off the column, presumably unretained, collect data from time 0,
without a solvent delay and the resultant mass spectra could be
informative.

Re: GC/MS analysis. Try injecting the gas with a gas-tight syringe.
If you have the option, start with a short column in case the gas is
sticky and does not go through the column. Use a longer column if the
gas components are not retained.
If direct injection does not work because the gas is in low
concentration, consider solid-phase microextraction or a headspace
sampler/cryotrap setup.
Given the reaction conditions, it is a real possibility that the gas
will react with the column. You may want to try a deactivated, uncoated
fused-Si column. You won't get separation, but you may get a mass
spectrum.
Good luck!
