Abstract:

Dechloranes are additive-type chlorine flame retardants that are widely used in processing industrial products, such as electronic equipment and textiles. Dechloranes, which can enter the human body through various routes, pose significant health risks because of their toxicity, persistence, and bioaccumulation. In 2023, dechlorane plus was listed in the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants. In the same year, China recognized this compound as a priority-controlled substance. Dechloranes are commonly found at trace levels in water, which is extremely harmful to the environment and human health. Therefore, the development of detection methods for dechloranes is crucial. Magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) has attracted considerable attention because of its low organic solvent consumption, simplicity of adsorbent separation, and ease of operation. In general, the selectivity and efficiency of MSPE depend on the characteristics of the adsorbent. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have regular porosity, structural predictability and stability, high specific surface areas, and adjustable pore sizes, which are advantageous for a wide range of separation and analysis applications. In this study, Fe₃O₄ magnetic nanoparticles and a COF material (TpBD) were combined to prepare Fe₃O₄@TpBD as an adsorbent for dechloranes. Subsequently, an effective method for analyzing dechlorane in environmental water was established by coupling MSPE with gas chromatography-negative chemical ionization mass spectrometry (GC-NCI/MS). The successful synthesis of Fe₃O₄@TpBD was confirmed using transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and vibrating sample magnetometry. A single-factor method was used to optimize the extraction conditions, including the Fe₃O₄@TpBD dosage, pH of water sample, elution solvent type and volume, extraction time, elution time, and ionic strength. The target analytes were separated on a TG-5SILMS column (30 m×0.25 mm×0.25 μm) and quantified using the external standard method in the selected-ion monitoring (SIM) mode. Under the optimal extraction conditions, the method validation results showed a linear range of 2-1000 ng/L. The limits of detection (LODs) and quantification (LOQs) were 0.18-0.27 ng/L and 0.60-0.92 ng/L, respectively, for the three analytes. The intra-day and inter-day precisions at three spiked levels were 4.2%-16.2% and 6.9%-15.7%, respectively. This method was successfully applied to the determination of dechloranes in environmental water samples (laboratory tap water, reservoir water, wastewater treatment plant effluent, and landfill leachate treatment effluent). The recoveries of the three dechloranes at different spiked levels ranged from 77.8% to 113.3% with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 2.5%-16.3% (n=3). With the advantages of operational simplicity, high sensitivity, and good reproducibility, the proposed method is suitable for the qualitative and quantitative determination of dechloranes in environmental water.
