Abstract

The retention of phenol and its derivatives on Silasorb C8 and PepRPC TMHR 5/5 was studied. Both columns are suitable for the separation of pyrocatechol–phenol–o-cresol(p-cresol)–2,6-xylenol mixtures using mobile phases containing 10–20 vol % of isopropanol and 1% glacial acetic acid in water. A procedure was developed for determining phenol with a detection limit of 4 mg/L (acetonitrile; signal-to-noise ratio, 2; loop volume, 25 μL). With preconcentration from 1-L samples in a Diapak-phenol/P cartridge, the procedure allows phenol to be determined in water samples with a detection limit of 4 μg/L. The procedure was used in analyses of samples of river and tap water.
