“…The polymer imprinted with the alternatives provided special recognition ability to the targets as that happened on the MIPs prepared by using real templates. 53 On the basis of investigating interactions between the functional monomer and several compounds having similar chemical structures and molecular size to the target pollutant, we prepared enzyme-like photocatalytic MIP composites by using pseudo-templates recently. 54 It is also possible to utilize a fragment template (a part of the target molecule) for synthesizing MIPs.…”

Molecular imprinting technology allows synthesis of polymers with specific recognition ability towards target pollutants, which show potential to selectively remove Highly Toxic Organic Pollutants (HTOPs) in the presence of common organic matrices that are thousands of times more abundant than the targets. This feature article summarizes the current development of molecular imprinting for removing HTOPs from polluted water, with a special emphasis on the application of molecularly imprinted polymers to improve the efficiency of photocatalytic and biological degradation of HTOPs in wastewater.

“…It is notoriously difficult to imprint small and low functionality templates and examples are scarce. 32,33 Graphene is a fascinating new member of carbon materials with honeycomb and one-atom-thick structures which has excited interest in the field adsorption due to its exceptional properties. EGO (graphene-based class) adsorption capacities were among the highest for NMP (503 µmol g −1 ) and DMF (657 µmol g −1 ), and are the best fitted by the Langmuir model, indicating the formation of a single adsorption layer on identical and equivalent binding sites.…”

“…Its choice is not only justified by its clinical relevance, inherent chirality and availability in enantiomerically pure and radio-labelled forms, but also because of its ability to stablish strong ion-pair interactions as well as hydrophobic [89]. The actual great challenge in the synthesis of MIPs is to imprint other interesting molecules such as macromolecules, charged or low functionality molecules [90].…”
