A new mesoporous silica based on the sol-gel material cyanopropyltriethoxysilane (CNPrTEOS) was successfully synthesized by the hydrolysis and condensation of CNPrTEOS in the presence of ammonium solution as catalyst and methanol as solvent. It was used as a solid-phase extraction sorbent for the simultaneous extraction of three organophosphorus pesticides, namely, polar dicrotophos and non-polar diazinon and chlorpyrifos. Analysis was performed using high-performance liquid chromatography with UV detection. CNPrTEOS was characterized by FTIR spectroscopy, field-emission scanning electron microscopy and nitrogen gas adsorption. The surface area and average pore diameter of the optimum sol-gel CNPrTEOS are 379 m(2) /g and 4.7 nm (mesoporous), respectively. The proposed solid-phase extraction based on CNPrTEOS exhibited good linearity in the range of 0.8-100 μg/L, satisfactory precision (1.15-3.82%), high enrichment factor (800) and low limit of detection (0.072-0.091 μg/L). The limits of detection obtained using the proposed solid-phase extraction method are well below the maximum residue limit set by European Union and are also lower (13.6-48.5×) than that obtained by using a commercial CN-SPE cartridge (0.98-4.41 μg/L). The new mesoporous sol-gel CNPrTEOS showed promising alternative as SPE sorbent material for the simultaneous extraction of polar and non-polar organophosphorus pesticides.
