If spectra match and retentin times match, the chances that compounds are the same are pretty good. Knwledge of the samples will help. If samples are related - extracts from three parts of a plant - chances of compounds being related are likely. If compunds are of unknown relationship - three samples from three entirely differnt sources - you may need more information.
