An in situ derivatization solid-phase microextraction method has been developed for the determination of haloacetic acids (HAAs) in water. The analytical procedure involves derivatization of HAAs to their methyl esters with dimethyl sulfate, headspace sampling using solid-phase microextraction (SPME), and gas chromatography-ion trap mass spectrometry (GC/ITMS) determination. Parameters affecting both derivatization efficiency and headspace SPME procedure, such as the selection of the SPME coating, derivatization−extraction time and temperature, and ionic strength, were optimized. The commercially available Carboxen-poly(dimethylsiloxane) (CAR-PDMS) fiber appears to be the most suitable for the determination of HAAs. Moreover, the formation of HAA methyl esters was dramatically improved (up to 90-fold) by the addition of tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate (4.7 μmol) to the sample as ion-pairing agent in the derivatization step. The precision of the in situ derivatization/HS-SPME/GC/ITMS method evaluated using an internal standard gave relative standard deviations (RSDs) between 6.3 and 11.4%. The method was linear over 2 orders of magnitude, and detection limits were compound-dependent, but ranged from 10 to 450 ng/L. The method was compared with the EPA method 552.2 for the analysis of HAAs in various water samples, and good agreement was obtained. Consequently, in situ derivatization/HS-SPME/GC/ITMS is proposed for the analysis of HAAs in water.
开发了一种原位衍生化固相微萃取方法,用于水中卤乙酸(HAAs)的测定。分析过程涉及HAAs与二甲基硫酸酯衍生化为甲酯,使用固相微萃取(SPME)进行顶空采样,以及采用气相色谱-离子阱质谱(GC/ITMS)进行测定。优化了影响衍生化效率和顶空SPME过程的参数,如SPME涂层的选择、衍生化-萃取时间与温度以及离子强度等。市售的Carboxen-聚(二甲基硅氧烷)(CAR-PDMS)纤维似乎最适合于HAAs的测定。此外,在衍生化步骤中,向样品中添加四丁基硫酸氢铵(4.7 μmol)作为离子配对剂,显著提高了HAA甲酯的形成(高达90倍)。使用内标法评估的原位衍生化/HS-SPME/GC/ITMS方法的精密度给出了相对标准偏差(RSDs)在6.3%至11.4%之间。该方法在线性范围超过2个数量级,检出限因化合物而异,但范围在10至450 ng/L之间。该方法与EPA方法552.2针对各种水样中HAAs的分析进行了比较,得到了良好的一致性。因此,提出原位衍生化/HS-SPME/GC/ITMS用于水中HAAs的分析。
