Abstract
A dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) method using in situ halide exchange reaction to form ionic liquid (IL) extraction phase was developed to determine four insecticides (i.e. methoxyfenozide, tetrachlorvinphos, thiamethoxam, and diafenthiuron) in water samples. The preconcentration procedure, followed by high-performance liquid chromatography and variable wavelength detectors (VWD), enabled the formation of the immiscible IL extraction phase; the insecticides were transferred into the IL phase simultaneously, which enhanced the efficiency and sufficiency, greatly shortening the operation time. The experimental parameters affecting the extraction efficiency including volume of extraction IL, extraction and centrifugation times, volume of the sample solution and exchanging reagent, and addition of organic solvent and salt were investigated and optimized. Under optimized conditions, the extractions yielded recoveries of the target analytes from 82 to 102%. The calibration curves were linear, and the correlation coefficient ranged from 0.9990 to 0.9999 under the concentration levels of 5-200 μg/L. The relative standard deviation (n=6) was 2.9-4.6%. The limits of detection (LODs) for the four insecticides were between 0.98 and 2.54 μg/L.
