    Abstract:
    The novel surface molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) with 2-nitrophenol (2-NP) as the template has been prepared and used as the adsorbent for the solid-phase extraction (SPE). The selectivity of the polymer was checked toward several selected nitrophenols (NPs) such as 2-NP, 3-nitrophenol (3-NP), 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (2,4,6-TCP). Under the optimized conditions, high sensitivity (detection limits: 0.07-0.12 ng/mL) and good reproducibility of analytes (2.3-4.8% for four cycles) were achieved. Then, the method was applied for the analysis of selected phenols in spiked tap, lake and river water samples. High recoveries (>83.3%) for nitrophenols (NPs) were obtained, but lower recoveries (<63.4%) were achieved for 2,4,6-TCP. The method was found to be linear in the range of 1-300 ng/mL with correlation coefficients (R(2) ) greater than 0.99 and repeatability relative standard deviation (RSD) below 7.2% in all cases. For analysis of 120 mL water samples, the method detection limits (LODs) ranged from 0.10 to 0.22 ng/mL and the limit of quantification (LOQs) from 0.33 to 0.72 ng/mL. These results showed the suitability of the MIP-SPE method for the selective extraction of a group of structurally related isomeric compounds.
