Fabrication of carbonyl-functional hypercrosslinked polymers as solid-phase extraction sorbent for enrichment of chlorophenols from water, honey and beverage samples.

Abstract

Three carbonyl-functional novel hypercrosslinked polymers (HCP-TPS, HCP-TPA, and HCP-TPP) were successfully fabricated through anone-step Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction by copolymerizing paraphthaloyl chloride with triphenylsilane, triphenylamine, and triphenylphosphine, respectively. The resultant HCPs contained plenty of carbonyl-functional groups. Among the series of such HCPs, HCP-TPS displayed the best adsorption capability to chlorophenols (CPs), and thus it was employed as solid-phase extraction (SPE) adsorbent for enrichment of chlorophenols from water, honey, and white peach beverage prior todetermination by high-performance liquid chromatography. Under the optimal conditions, the detection limits of the method (S/N = 3) were 0.15-0.3ngmL-1 for tap water and leak water, 2.5-6.0ngg-1 for honey sample and 0.4-0.6ngmL-1 for white peach beverage sample. The recoveries of CPs in the spiked water, honey samples, and white peach beverage were in the range of 89.0-108.4%, 81.4-118.2%, and 85.0-113.5%, respectively. This work provides a new strategy for constructing functionalized HCPs as efficient SPE adsorbents. In this work, three novel hypercrosslinked polymers (HCPs) were synthesized by the Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction (paraphthaloyl chloride as the alkylating agent, triphenylsilane, triphenylamine, and triphenylphosphine as the aromatic units). Then, HCP-TPS was applied to soild-phase extraction sorbent for enrichment CPs from water, honey, and white peach beverage samples.
