Abstract: In this work, to improve the availability of the recognition sites of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), ordered macroporous molecularly imprinted polymers (OMMIPs) were facilely prepared by grafting a quercetin-MIPs layer on the pore walls of the ordered macroporous thiol group functionalized silica. The pore structures were characterized by FTIR, Raman, SEM, BET and TGA measurements. The results indicated that OMMIPs possessed a nanoscale polymer layer, a more regular macroporous structure and a greater porosity compared with the traditional bulk MIPs (TBMIPs). The polymer content of OMMIPs was about 49.7%. Kinetic and isothermal adsorption experiments indicated that OMMIPs exhibited higher affinity and selectivity towards quercetin than its structural analogues. Moreover, OMMIPs could improve the intra-particle adsorption and thus provide a significant improvement in recognition sites availability over TBMIPs. Using the quercetin-OMMIPs as SPE sorbent, quercetin was directly extracted from the crude Gingko leaves extract with a satisfying selectivity and elution recovery
