Covalent triazine-based framework-grafted functionalized fibrous silica sphere as a solid-phase microextraction...

A novel covalent triazine-based framework (CTF)-grafted phenyl-functionalized fibrous silica nanosphere, KCC-1 (named as RS-2) was synthesized via a simple and effective Friedel-Crafts approach. The microporous CTF with fluorene backbone was coupled and grown uniformly on the surface of phenyl-functionalized KCC-1 to prepare a hybrid extended porous framework. The prepared materials were characterized, and FE-SEM and TEM images revealed a flower-like structure for RS-2. The synthesized RS-2 showed excellent thermal stability, so the weight loss was about 30% at 800 °C. RS-2 was applied as a new coating in the solid-phase microextraction procedure to extract chlorpyrifos and fenthion pesticides from water, wastewater, and fruit samples, before determining by corona discharge-ion mobility spectrometry. Some experimental factors affecting the extraction yield of the analytes, including ionic strength, stirring rate, sample pH, extraction temperature, and extraction time, were investigated. Under optimum conditions, the linear dynamic ranges were 0.1-10 μg L^-1 and 1.0-70 μg L^-1, and the limits of detection were 0.05 and 0.55 μg L^-1 for chlorpyrifos and fenthion, respectively. The proposed method showed recovery values in the range 86-117% with a precision of 3.0-7.1% for real samples. Covalent triazine-based framework (CTF)-grafted phenyl-functionalized fibrous silica nanosphere (named as RS-2) was synthesized. RS-2 was applied as a sorbent for solid-phase microextraction (SPME) of chlorpyrifos and fenthion from fruit and water samples followed by corona discharge ionization ion mobility spectrometry (CD-IMS).
