In this work, an organic‐inorganic hybrid boronate affinity monolithic column was prepared via “one‐pot” process using 4‐vinylphenylboronic acid as organic monomer and divinylbenzene as cross‐linker. The effects of reaction temperature, solvents and composition of organic monomers on the column properties (e.g. morphology, permeability, and mechanical stability) were investigated. A series of test compounds including small neutral molecules, aromatic amines, and cis‐diol compounds were used to evaluate the retention behaviors of the prepared hybrid monolithic column. The results demonstrated that the prepared hybrid monolith exhibited mixed‐interactions including hydrophilicity, cation exchange, and boronate affinity interaction. The run‐to‐run, day‐to‐day and batch‐to‐batch reproducibilities of the prepared hybrid monolith for thiourea's retention time were satisfactory with the relative standard deviations (RSDs) less than 0.09, 1.45 and 4.05% (n = 3), respectively, indicating the effectiveness and practicability of the proposed method.
