In this report, the collection and determination of phenol; o-, m-, and p-cresols; 2,4,5- and 2,4,6-trichlorophenols; 2,3,4,5- and 2,3,5,6-tetrachlorophenols; and pentachlorophenol are described. The phenols are collected from water samples by adsorption on XAD-4 cartridges. After elution with diethyl ether and returning to an aqueous media, the phenols are determined by high performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection (HPLC/EC). The separation was obtained utilizing a cyclobond 1..beta.. (5..mu..) HPLC column.
