Popis: The extraction performance of solid-phase microextraction (SPME) fiber is significantly influenced by coating materials and fabricating process. It is urgently needed for fabricating robust SPME fiber with facile preparation methods. Herein, a novel polyimide (PI) @ covalent organic framework (COF) synthesized by 1,3,5-Tris (4-aminophenyl) benzene (TPB) and 2,5-dimethoxyterephthalaldehyde (DMTP) fiber, named PI@TPB-DMTP fiber, was successfully fabricated with facile method at room temperature. Firstly, a COF crystals TPB-DMTP was in situ grown on stainless steel fiber, where the COF crystals was synthesized by the Schiff-base reaction between TPB and DMTP. Subsequently, the COF coating was covered with an ultrathin layer of PI through a simple dip-coating method to improve the fiber stability. By coupled PI@TPB-DMTP SPME fiber with gas chromatography-negative chemical ion-mass spectrometry (GC-NCI-MS), a sensitive analytical method was established for the determination of ultratrace polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in water sample. To achieve the best efficiency and sensitivity for the analysis of PBDEs, six potential influencing factors in extraction step and desorption step were optimized. Under optimized conditions, the established method showed high enhancement factors of 1470–3555, wide linear range of 0.05–100 ng L−1, low detection limits of 0.0083–0.0190 ng L−1, good repeatability for intra-day in the range of 3.71%–7.62% and inter-day in the range of 5.12%–8.81%, good reproducibility in the range of 6.83%–9.21%. The satisfactory recovery was ranged from 79.2% to 117.3% in determining real water samples. The excellent experimental performance was mainly attributed to the large specific surface area of TPB-DMTP, as well as the high permeability of porous PI film. The results demonstrated that the COF-based fiber showed great potential for analysis of PBDEs in complex environmental samples.
