Modification of hollow microporous organic network with polyethyleneimine for efficient enrichment of phenolic acids from fruit juice samples.

Owning to the hydrophobic characteristics of microporous organic networks (MONs), their utilizations still largely limited in non- and weak-polar analytes. To expend their applications, here we reported the synthesis of a novel hollowed H-MON-PEI-2 composite via sacrifice template method and subsequent modification with polyethyleneimine (PEI) for efficient solid phase extraction of polar and ionic phenolic acid (PAs) from fruit juice samples. H-MON-PEI-2 exhibits large surface area, rapid extraction kinetics, remarkable chemical and thermal stabilities, and provides synergistic electrostatic, π-π, hydrogen bonding, and hydrophobic interaction sites for PAs.

Sacrificial template synthesis of hollow sulfonate group functionalized microporous organic network for efficient solid phase extraction of sulfonamide antibiotics from milk and honey samples.

The highly conjugated and hydrophobic characteristics of microporous organic networks (MONs) have largely impeded their broad applications in sample pretreatment especially for the polar or ionic analytes. In this work, a novel uniform hollow shaped sulfonate group functionalized MON (H-MON-SOH-2) was synthesized via the sacrificial template method for the efficient solid phase extraction (SPE) of sulfonamides (SAs) from environmental water, milk, and honey samples prior to HPLC analysis. H-MON-SOH-2 exhibited large specific surface area, penetrable space, good stability, and numerous hydrogen bonding, electrostatic, hydrophobic and π-π interaction sites, allowing sensitive SPE of SAs with wide linear range (0.
