Abstract
Vanillin is widely used in food production, but excessive consumption can cause health problems, so the detection of vanillin is of great significance for food safety. In this paper, a fluorescent sensor (Zn-MOF) for the effective recognition of vanillin was developed. The fluorescence of Zn-MOF was quenched by vanillin and the detection mechanism could be attributed to competitive absorption and photoelectron-induced transfer. The detection limit was calculated 1.44 × 10−9 M, which is the lowest among MOF fluorescent probes for vanillin. Notably, filter paper strips based on Zn-MOF could be used for visual detection of vanillin and the Zn-MOF sensor could be applied for quantitative analysis of vanillin in food samples. Moreover, the multifunctional probe's ability to detect Cr2O72−/CrO42− with detection limits of 8.22 × 10−9 / 7.73 × 10−9 M underscores its versatile analytical potential. The practical application of Zn-MOF in biscuits and river water has yielded recoveries ranging from 98.33 % to 100.7 %, with outstanding reproducibility (RSD = 0.47 % ~ 3.30 %).
期刊介绍:
Inorganica Chimica Acta is an established international forum for all aspects of advanced Inorganic Chemistry. Original papers of high scientific level and interest are published in the form of Articles and Reviews.
Topics covered include:
• chemistry of the main group elements and the d- and f-block metals, including the synthesis, characterization and reactivity of coordination, organometallic, biomimetic, supramolecular coordination compounds, including associated computational studies;
• synthesis, physico-chemical properties, applications of molecule-based nano-scaled clusters and nanomaterials designed using the principles of coordination chemistry, as well as coordination polymers (CPs), metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), metal-organic polyhedra (MPOs);
• reaction mechanisms and physico-chemical investigations computational studies of metalloenzymes and their models;
• applications of inorganic compounds, metallodrugs and molecule-based materials.
Papers composed primarily of structural reports will typically not be considered for publication.
