Herein, we report a series of carboxyl-grafted metal-organic frameworks (UiO-66-(COOH)(n), n = 0,1,2,4) for Pb2+ removal and the important role of carboxyl groups in capture of Pb2+. Among these materials, UiO-66-(COOH)(2) exhibits a large adsorption capacity of 420.2 mg g(-1), superior to that of other metal-organic frameworks and most of reported adsorbents. Besides, 99.99% of Pb2+ can be removed from water in the concentration range of <100 ppm with the UiO-66-(COOH)(2) dosage of 0.5 mg mL(-1). Furthermore, UiO-66-(COOH)(2) can be easily regenerated through a simple method. Mechanism analysis (Fourier transform infrared, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and density functional theory calculation) indicates that the synergy effect of rich carboxyl groups and proper pore structure plays a critical role in the capture of Pb2+. This work may provide a guideline to design high-efficiency adsorbents for Pb2+ from water.
