Abstract
It is well known that the introduction of dye molecules into metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can produce self-calibrating fluorescent sensors. In this work, we successfully constructed two dual-emission composites, MB@ZnMOF1 and MB@ZnMOF2. These composites are based on ZnMOFs synthesized using the organic ligands 5-((4-carboxyphenyl)formylamino)thiophene-2-carboxylicacid (L1) and 2,5-bis-(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)thiopheneamide (L2), respectively, with the luminescent dye methylene blue (MB) encapsulated within their pores. Inspired by the dual-emission properties of these MB@ZnMOFs, we investigated their potential as fluorescent sensors for antibiotic compounds and aromatic amines. The results demonstrate that MB@ZnMOFs function effectively as multi-target sensors for selective detection of tetracycline and nitroanilines, with good anti-interference capability and cyclic stability. In addition, the dual-emission peaks of the MB@ZnMOFs both exhibit pronounced fluorescence changes upon interaction with analytes, enabling them to serve as self-calibrated fluorescent probes to detect tetracycline and nitroanilines. The possible quenching mechanism can be attributed to a competitive absorption between the MB@ZnMOFs and the analytes.
期刊介绍:
Polyhedron publishes original, fundamental, experimental and theoretical work of the highest quality in all the major areas of inorganic chemistry. This includes synthetic chemistry, coordination chemistry, organometallic chemistry, bioinorganic chemistry, and solid-state and materials chemistry.
Papers should be significant pieces of work, and all new compounds must be appropriately characterized. The inclusion of single-crystal X-ray structural data is strongly encouraged, but papers reporting only the X-ray structure determination of a single compound will usually not be considered. Papers on solid-state or materials chemistry will be expected to have a significant molecular chemistry component (such as the synthesis and characterization of the molecular precursors and/or a systematic study of the use of different precursors or reaction conditions) or demonstrate a cutting-edge application (for example inorganic materials for energy applications). Papers dealing only with stability constants are not considered.
