[Research progress on the application of derived porous carbon materials in solid-phase microextraction].

The concentrations of target analytes in samples are low, and complex matrices can lead to a variety of interferences. Therefore, it is important to pretreat the samples before analysis. Compared to the time-consuming, tedious, and environmentally unfriendly solvent-based sample pretreatment methods, pretreatment techniques based on adsorption have more promising applications. Adsorption-based pretreatment technologies include solid-phase extraction, dispersive solid-phase extraction, magnetic solid-phase extraction, and solid-phase microextraction. Among them, solid-phase microextraction integrates sampling, extraction, enrichment, and injection into a single step. It has the advantages of being solvent-free, highly efficient, time efficient, and labor efficient. The extraction efficiency of solid-phase microextraction is closely related to the coating materials. There are various types of coating materials, including metal-organic frameworks, covalent organic frameworks, molecular imprinted polymers, porous carbon materials and so on. Porous carbon materials include traditional porous carbon materials such as activated carbon, carbon nanotubes, carbon molecular sieves, and derived porous carbon materials. Given their advantages of large specific surface area, controllable porous structure, large number of active sites, as well as good physical and chemical stability, porous carbon materials have been widely used in batteries, supercapacitors, catalysis, adsorption, and separation. Porous carbon materials are also popular coating materials for solid-phase microextraction. In particular, derived porous carbon materials find widespread use given their variety and designability. Most of these materials are derived from biomass and metal-organic framework precursors. In addition, past studies have mainly focused on the structural optimization of derived porous carbon materials. However, the applications of derived porous carbon materials in solid-phase microextraction are restricted by the following problems. (1) The preparation of porous carbon materials derived from covalent organic frameworks has seen great progress. However, there are only a few studies on their applications in solid-phase microextraction. (2) The prepared-derived porous carbon materials have excellent extraction abilities as when applied to solid-phase microextraction coatings. However, there is less systematic and clear mechanism to explain it. (3) Most derived porous carbon materials when used as solid-phase microextraction coatings show nice extraction performance only for specific analytes such as polar or non-polar substances. Therefore, in this paper, the research progress of derived porous carbon materials in solid-phase microextraction over the past three years has been summarized, and future research prospects have been prospected. Covalent organic frameworks can be used as precursors to prepare derived porous carbon materials with a narrow pore size distribution and a large specific surface area. It is necessary to further develop porous carbon materials derived from covalent organic frameworks as solid-phase microextraction coatings. The specific mechanism underlying this extraction effect should also be clarified. In addition, it is necessary to develop high-performance derived porous coating materials for broad-spectrum and high-sensitivity analysis of pollutants with different physical and chemical properties. Therefore, hierarchical porous carbon materials should be widely studied in solid-phase microextraction because of their multimodal pore sizes.
