Direct head-space solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) of phenols in water is usually difficult due to its polarity and solubility in aqueous matrix. Herein we report the fabrication of metal-organic framework MOF-177 coated stainless steel fiber for the HS-SPME of phenols (2-methylolphenol, 4-methylolphenol, 2,4-dimethylolphenol, 2,4-dichlorphenol, and 3-methyl-4-ch lorophenol) in environmental water samples prior to the gas chromatography-mass spectrometry detection. Several parameters affecting the extraction efficiency were optimized in the experiment, including extraction temperature and time, the pH value and salt addition. The results indicated that the coated fiber gave low detection limits (0.015-0.043 μg L-1) and good repeatability with the RSD ranging from 2.8% to 5.5% for phenols. The recoveries are between 84.5%-98.6% with the spiked level of 10 μg L-1 for the real water samples. The established method may afford a kind of potential enrichment material and a reference method for the analysis of methylphenols in water samples.
