A novel magnetic porous carbon nanocomposite derived from a cobalt-based metal-organic framework was synthesized and evaluated for simultaneous preconcentration of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. The composite showed good sensitivity, precision, and applicability when tested with model analytes, and demonstrated satisfactory results when applied to real seawater samples.
Herein, a novel magnetic porous carbon nanocomposite derived from a cobalt based-metal-organic framework was synthesized and evaluated for simultaneous preconcentration of homo and hetero-polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Briefly, magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) were synthesized and then were coated with a metalorganic framework layer. Finally, the magnetic nanocomposite was carbonized under an inert atmosphere to obtain the magnetic porous carbon (MPC). Various characterization techniques such as FT-IR spectroscopy, transmission and scanning electron microcopies, vibrating sample magnetometry, and X-ray diffraction were employed. Applicability of the MPC was explored using benzothiophene, dibenzothiophene, 9,10-dimethylanthracene, and benz[alpha]anthracene as the model analytes. Limits of detection and linearities were achieved in the range of 0.06-0.18 mu g L-1 and 0.25-500 mu g L-1, respectively. Precision of the method as RSDs was evaluated which was in the range of 4.2-7.0% (within-day, n = 5) and 8.2-11.3% (between-day, n = 3). Ultimately, the method was applied to analyze two seawater samples and satisfactory results (RSDs%, 5.0-9.0%; relative recoveries, 89-104%) were obtained.
