Abstract: Molecularly imprinting polymers with high selectivity toward 29 sulfonylurea herbicides were synthesized by precipitation polymerization, using metsulfuron-methyl and chlorsulfuron as the template molecule, 4-vinylpyridine as the function monomer, divinylbenzene as the crosslinking agent, and acetonitrile as porogen. The imprinted polymers were characterized and measured by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and equilibrium adsorption experiments. The molecularly imprinted polymers displayed specific recognition for the tested 29 sulfonylurea herbicides, and the maximum apparent binding capacity was found to be 18.81 mg/g. The synthesized polymer was used as a solid-phase extraction (SPE) column coupled with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for determination of the tested analytes in agro-products. Within the range of 2-100 μg/L, the tested analytes have achieved a good linear association with correlation coefficient (R2) > 0.999. The calculated limits of detection (LODs, S/N=3) as along with limits of quantification (LOQs, S/N=10) were in the ranges of 0.005-0.07 μg/L and 0.018-0.23 μg/L, respectively. Under different spiking levels, the recovery rates were ranged from 74.8% - 110.5%, and the relative standard deviation (RSDs) were < 5.3%. Finally, the feasibility of the proposed methodology was successfully applied for detection of sulfonylurea herbicides in crops, vegetables, and oils samples
