Abstract

A method is described for the determination of organotins in water samples by GC/MS. Optimized derivatization methods for ethylation and hydrogenation of organotins were surveyed according to various reaction conditions such as time, pH and concentration of reagents. The organotins were extracted with n-hexane in presence of 0.1% tropolone and hydrogenated with sodium borohydride. Extraction recoveries of organotins with hydrogenation were in the range of 61-112%. After ethylation, organotins in water samples were extracted by liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) and solid-phase extraction (SPE). Using LLE, extraction recoveries were in the range of 74-113%. The recoveries ranged from 61-97% in the case of SPE with styrene-divinylbenzene copolymers. Method detection limits of hydrogenated and ethylated organotins ranged from 0.05 to 0.5 ng/ml and from 0.02 to 0.05 ng/ml, respectively.
