Zirconium(Ⅳ)-based metal-organic framework (MOF)-UiO-66-NH2 was fabricated to adsorb the imidacloprid and thiamethoxam in fruit samples before analysis using UPLC-MS/MS. The UiO-66-NH2 was confirmed by SEM, FTIR, and XRD. Key experimental parameters were investigated by response surface methodology (RSM). The desirability recovery of imidacloprid was 94.52% under optimum conditions (mount of adsorbent = 52.48 mg, volume of eluent = 5.18 mL, pH = 9, extraction time = 15 min). The desirability recovery of thiamethoxam was 93.57% under optimum conditions (mount of adsorbent = 50.58 mg, volume of eluent = 2.6 mL, pH = 5.65, extraction time = 11.94 min). Under the optimal conditions, the actual recovery of imidacloprid and thiamethoxam was 92.39% and 94.37%, respectively. Besides, the method was applied successfully to detect imidacloprid and thiamethoxam in different fruit samples. The results demonstrated that the UiO-66-NH2 is an excellent adsorbent for the extraction imidacloprid and thiamethoxam from fruit samples.
