A novel strategy was demonstrated to fabricate a luminescent lanthanide functionalized MOF by encapsulating Eu3+ cations in the pores of MIL-53–COOH (Al) nanocrystals. The Eu3+ incorporated sample shows excellent luminescence and good fluorescence stability in water due to the sensitization and protection provided by the parented framework. Subsequently, Eu3+ incorporated nanocrystals were developed as a highly selective and sensitive probe for detection of Fe3+ in aqueous solutions. In addition, the possible sensing mechanism based on cation exchange between Fe3+ and the framework Al3+ in MIL-53–COOH (Al) was discussed in detail. This is the first example for detecting Fe3+ in aqueous solutions based on a lanthanide functionalized nanoscale MOF. The good fluorescence stability in an aqueous environment, the low detection limit and the broad linear range, together with the nanoscale nature of this probe suggest it has potential for intracellular sensing and imaging of Fe3+.

An Eu3+ post-functionalized nanosized metal–organic framework for cation exchange-based

Two series of lanthanide metal–organic frameworks (Ln-MOFs) from two structurally related flexible carboxylate-based ligands were solvothermally synthesized. H3L2 with additional −CH2− group provides more flexibility and different coordination modes and conformations compared with H3L1. As a result, 2-Ln MOFs are modulated from two-dimensional kgd of 1-Ln to three-dimensional rtl topological frameworks and further achieve enhanced chemical stability. The Eu- and Tb-MOFs exhibit strong fluorescent emission at the solid state because of the antenna effect of the ligands. Interestingly, the emissions can be tuned by simply doping Eu3+ and Tb3+ of different concentrations within the EuxTb1–x MOFs. Notably, 2-Ln MOFs realize nearly white light emission by means of a trichromatic approach (red of Eu(III), green of Tb(III), and blue of the H3L2 ligand). Furthermore, 2-Ln MOFs also exhibit water stability and demonstrate high selective and sensitive sensing activities toward Fe(III) and Cr(VI) in aqueous solution...

Metal ion detection using luminescent-MOFs: Principles, strategies and roadmap

Owing to their three dimensionality and high porosity, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted the attention of scientists especially chemists and material engineers. The frameworks of this subclass of hybrid materials are made of inorganic metal ions/clusters and organic bridging ligands. Special connections between these two building blocks of MOFs lead to a theoretically unlimited number of frameworks. Unlike other porous materials, MOFs benefit from characteristics such as high crystallinity and regularity, high porosity and surface area, hybrid organic-inorganic nature, moderate to high chemical and thermal stability, and decorable pores with different functional groups. Decorating MOFs with functions is possible through functionalization of organic linkers, inorganic building blocks, and void cavities of the framework. Tunability of MOFs with organic linkers is of particular importance due to the unlimited possibility to design functional or multi-functional organic linkers as well as distinctive chemical properties of organic functional groups (OFGs). The purpose of this review is to gain deeper insight into the effects of organic functional groups on structure, host-guest chemistry and applications of functional metal-organic frameworks (FMOFs) in order to be able to synthesize functional MOFs for specific purposes through an in depth analysis of the literature.

Linker Functionalized Metal-Organic Frameworks

Iron(III) ions play a vital role in living biological systems, while organic pollutants including pesticides and antibiotics pose a great threat to the ecological environment. Effective detection for these species is crucial for human health and environmental protection. In this work, we designed and synthesized a new amino-decorated bridging ligand H2APDA and employed it to react with the environmentally friendly Mg(II) ions to construct a novel magnesium luminescent metal-organic framework (Mg-LMOF), namely [Mg2(APDA)2(H2O)3]·5DMA·5H2O (Mg-APDA). The as-synthesized Mg-LMOF is a three-dimensional framework with one-dimensional hexagonal channels. These microporous channels are decorated with Lewis-base amino sites and uncoordinated O atoms, which facilitate the Mg-APDA to anchor and recognize various analytes. Mg-APDA can be used as a multiresponsive luminescent sensor to detect Fe(III) ions, pesticides, and antibiotics effectively. To the best of our knowledge, this work represents the first amino-decorated Mg-LMOF as an efficient fluorescent sensor for detecting metal ions, pesticides, and antibiotics simultaneously.

A Novel Magnesium Metal–Organic Framework as a Multiresponsive Luminescent Sensor for Fe(III) Ions, Pesticides, and Antibiotics with High Selectivity and Sensitivity

Four novel three-dimensional (3D) 4d–4f heterometal–organic compounds, [LnCd2(Pbc)4(Meimdc)(H2O)]·3H2O (Ln = Eu, 1a; Tb, 1b; Sm, 1c; Dy, 1d) (HPbc = 4-(4-pyridinyl)benzoic acid; H3Meimdc = 2-methyl-1H-4,5-imidazole-dicarboxylic acid), have been successfully prepared by a hydrothermal method. All the compounds are isostructural and show three-dimensional microporous pillar-layered structures with uncoordinated carboxylate sites hung in the channels. Compound 1a possesses excellent chemical stability. The luminescent investigations show that compounds 1a, 1b, 1c, and 1d display the characteristic emission bands of Ln3+ ions. Compound 1a exhibits a good potential as a luminescent sensor material for multi-responsive Ag+, Cu2+, Zn+, Co2+, and Ni2+ cations and some organic amines. Interestingly, 1a can capture Ag+, Cu2+, Zn+, Co2+, and Ni2+ cations and shows cation-dependent colorimetric response, which indicates the potential for naked sensing.

A series of lanthanide–organic frameworks [Ln(Himdc)(ina)(H2O)]n (Ln = Eu 1a; Sm 1b; and Nd 1c, H3imdc = imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid, Hina = isonicotinic acid) were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. All compounds 1a–1c consist of a 3D microporous lanthanide carboxylate ([Eu(COO)3]n) framework and uncoordinated Lewis basic pyridyl and imidazole groups hung in the channels. The luminescence investigations show that the compound 1c displays an interesting NIR luminescence property. The compound 1a exhibits a good potential as a luminescent multi-responsive sensing material for Fe3+ ions and Cr2O72− anions.

An organic-inorganic hybrid polyoxoniobate decorated by Co(III)-amine complex for electrocatalytic urea splitting

Two high-nuclearity isopolyoxoniobates containing {Nb54 O151}-based helical nanotubes for the decomposition of chemical warfare agent simulants.

A 3D Co(III)-complex hybrid polyoxoniobate framework Na10(H2O)36[Co2(phen)2(4,4'-bipy)(Nb6O19)2]·19H2O (1) has been constructed from [Co2(phen)2(4,4'-bipy)(Nb6O19)2]10- dimer units and 2D inorganic Na-O cluster layers. The Co(III) centers are coordinated with {Nb6O19}, 4,4'-bipy and phen simultaneously. The [Co2(phen)2(4,4'-bipy)(Nb6O19)2]10- fragments link the Na-O cluster layers to generate a 3D metal complex-modified hybrid polyoxoniobate framework with π-π interactions between phenanthroline rings. Compound 1 shows reversible thermochromic behavior resulting from electron transfer from {Nb6O19} to 4,4'-bipy and subsequent formation of radical products, which is first observed in polyoxoniobates. Furthermore, the compound exhibits stable nonvolatile storage behavior and rewritable resistive switching with a low switching voltage (1.12 V) and high current on/off ratio (1.18 × 103) along with stable cyclic performance during stability test for 200 cycles. Charge-transfer mechanism has been studied by analyzing the relationship between current and voltage in the process of resistance switching.
