A three-dimensional Cd(ii) metal–organic framework: a bifunctional luminescence sensor for benzaldehyde and Fe2+ ions†
*ab
Abstract
A solvothermal reaction between Cd(NO3)2·4H2O and the bifunctional ligand 3,5-bis-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)benzene carboxylic acid (HTBC) afforded a three-dimensional coordination polymer, namely [Cd0.5(TBC)]n (1). Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses exhibited that MOF 1 possesses a 3D framework with rtl topology, which exists in the form of 2-fold interpenetrated networks. Its luminescence properties demonstrated that complex 1 is a very suitable MOF for the luminescence probing of Fe2+ cations over other metal cations with a high quenching-efficiency constant KSV value of 1.35 × 105 M−1 and a low fluorescence detection limit. In addition, complex 1 also exhibits the highly selective and visually sensitive sensing of the organic contaminant PhCHO with good reusability and a low detection limit. What's more, this is a regenerable luminescent sensor for the highly selective, sensitive sensing of Fe2+ over Fe3+.
