Abstract
A newly developed cadmium coordination polymer, [Cd(HEA)(L1)]n (1), was prepared via a hydrothermal method and demonstrated to function as a multifunctional fluorescent probe for detecting heavy metal ions and antibiotics in aqueous solutions. The compound exhibits an unique two-dimensional layered structure that self-organizes into a robust three-dimensional framework, showcasing exceptional thermal stability and significant solvent tolerance. Fluorescence studies emphasized the outstanding metal ion detection capabilities of complex 1, which demonstrated a detection limit of 0.01434 μM for Fe3+ and 0.05949–0.06148 μM for Cr6+. Furthermore, the material exhibited selective fluorescence quenching towards specific antibiotics, with detection limits of 0.0369 μM for Ornidazole (ODZ) and 0.0687 μM for Nitrofurazone (NFZ). Notably, the material retained its fluorescent properties over five consecutive usage cycles. Comprehensive experimental studies and theoretical calculations show that the fluorescence quenching process involves the synergistic action of multiple mechanisms, mainly including: static quenching, dynamic quenching, competitive absorption, and light-induced electron transfer pathways. This work presents a promising strategy for sensing trace heavy metals and antibiotics in water systems, offering valuable contributions to the development of advanced environmental monitoring methodologies.
期刊介绍:
Dyes and Pigments covers the scientific and technical aspects of the chemistry and physics of dyes, pigments and their intermediates. Emphasis is placed on the properties of the colouring matters themselves rather than on their applications or the system in which they may be applied.
Thus the journal accepts research and review papers on the synthesis of dyes, pigments and intermediates, their physical or chemical properties, e.g. spectroscopic, surface, solution or solid state characteristics, the physical aspects of their preparation, e.g. precipitation, nucleation and growth, crystal formation, liquid crystalline characteristics, their photochemical, ecological or biological properties and the relationship between colour and chemical constitution. However, papers are considered which deal with the more fundamental aspects of colourant application and of the interactions of colourants with substrates or media.
The journal will interest a wide variety of workers in a range of disciplines whose work involves dyes, pigments and their intermediates, and provides a platform for investigators with common interests but diverse fields of activity such as cosmetics, reprographics, dye and pigment synthesis, medical research, polymers, etc.
