Four switchable hydrophilicity solvents (SHSs) were prepared and tested for the extraction of vanillin. The obtained extract phase after phase separation was analyzed by UV–vis spectrophotometry. The extraction parameters including pH, vortex time, NaOH volume, and SHS volume were optimized using central composite design based on response surface methodology. Under optimized conditions, the linear range (0.2–400 ng mL−1 with r2 = 0.9985), limit of detection (0.06 ng mL−1), limit of quantitation (2.0 ng mL−1), extraction recovery (97 ± 4 %) and enhancement factor (220) were obtained. Also, relative standard deviations were less than 2.1 % indicating good precision. The VA-SHS-LPME procedure showed some advantages including good extraction, low consumption of chemical and low matrix effect. Finally, the VA-SHS-LPME procedure was applied for the determination of vanillin in food samples, and acceptable recoveries (91 ± 3–99 ± 3 %) were obtained.
