The development of a simple speciation method for the determination of lead (trimethyllead(I), dimethyllead(II), triethyllead(I), and diethyllead(II)), mercury (methylmercury(I), ethylmercuty(I), mercuty(II)), and tin (n-butyltin(III), di-n-butyltin(II), tri-n-butyltin(I), tin(IV)) compounds in environmental samples was described. The potential of C-70 fullerenes and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) as sorbents was investigated for the first time; this study revealed that there are no significant differences between them in terms of sensitivity, selectivity, precision, and reusability. Comparative studies showed that MWNTs and C-60 and C70 fullerenes were superior to graphitized carbon black and RP-C-18 for the extraction of the 11 compounds studied. The accuracy of the MWNT method was evaluated from recovery values with two standard reference coastal sediments, and good concordance in the results were obtained. Detection limits of 0.5-2 pg/mL were obtained when using a sorbent column containing 160 mg of MWNTs (sample breakthrough, 50 mL of water). The method was successfully applied to the determination of lead, mercury, and tin compounds in water and coastal sediment samples with satisfactory results.
