Preparation of hypercrosslinked porous polymer with manifold functional groups for sensitive determination of phenylurea herbicides in beverages and celtuce samples.

Abstract

Wide use of phenylurea herbicide has caused serious residue problem and threaten human health. It is important to develop viable method for their sensitive determination. Herein, a multi-functionalized porous polymer was prepared by crosslinking hexafluorobisphenol A with pyromellitic dianhydride. Using the multi-functionalized porous polymer as solid phase extraction sorbent, combined with high performance liquid chromatography, a sensitive method was established for determining phenylurea herbicides in beverages and celtuces. High sensitivity was achieved, with method detection limit (S/N=3) of 0.01---0.025ngmL-1 for beverages, 1.70ngg-1 for celtuce, and quantitation limits of 0.03---0.10ngmL-1 for beverages, 5.00ngg-1 for celtuce. The method recoveries were 80.5---120.0 % with relative standard deviations lower than 6.1%. Adsorption mechanism mainly involved F-π, F-O, π-π, polar interactions and hydrogen-bonding interactions. This study offers a simple protocol to develop multi-functional sorbents for extraction of organic pollutants.
