The destruction of the ecological environment caused by human activity and modern industrial development is so severe that the water environment has become seriously polluted. Therefore, the exploration of high-efficiency absorbents has become one of the hot topics to solve this issue. Herein, a porous metal-organic framework [Cu(L)]·2.5H2O·0.5DMF (1, DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide) was successfully constructed using a rigid N-heterocyclic 5-(4-(1H,3,4-triazol-1-yl)phenyl)isophthalic acid (H2L) ligand. In particular, its structure includes the classical paddle-wheel-shaped secondary building units and two 1D channels with diameters of 7.2 and 3.2 Å, respectively. Complex 1 shows great sorption performance for methylene blue (MB) with a maximum capacity of 589 mg·g-1. The various influence factors, including the time, dye concentration, adsorbent dosage, and the pH of the solution, are investigated respectively. Also, the adsorption process is more in line with the first-order kinetics and the Langmuir isothermal adsorption model. The strong electrostatic force and intermolecular forces are primarily responsible for the remarkable adsorption ability of MB.
