Fabrication of montmorillonite/ionic liquid composite coated solid-phase microextraction fibers for determination of phenolic compounds in fruit juices by gas chromatography and liquid chromatography.

Novel montmorillonite composites including ionic liquid were prepared and utilized as coating materials for solid phase microextraction fibers. Ionic liquids containing amino terminated imidazolium cations with methyl and benzyl groups and hydrophobic anions (bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide) and hydrophilic anions (bromide and tetrafluoroborate) were intercalated to KSF-montmorillonite using stainless steel wire as support by using the layer-by-layer technique. After optimization of experimental conditions, solid phase microextraction (SPME) coupled to gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (SPME-GC/MS) after derivatization by silylation and high performance liquid chromatography/diode array detector (SPME-HPLC/DAD) were developed for the determination of 16 phenolic compounds.
