Sensors and sensitivity: A highly luminescent microporous metal-organic framework, [Zn(2)(bpdc)(2)(bpee)] (bpdc = 4,4'-biphenyldicarboxylate; bpee = 1,2-bipyridylethene), is capable of very fast and reversible detection of the vapors of the nitroaromatic explosive 2,4-dinitrotoluene and the plastic explosive taggant 2,3-dimethyl-2,3-dinitrobutane, through redox fluorescence quenching with unprecedented sensitivity (see spectra).
Ein hoch empfindlicher Sensor: Mit dem intensiv lumineszierenden mikroporösen Metall‐organischen Gerüst [Zn2(bpdc)2(bpee)] (bpdc=4,4′‐Biphenyldicarboxylat; bpee=1,2‐Bipyridylethen) lassen sich Dämpfe des Nitrosprengstoffs 2,4‐Dinitrotoluol und von 2,3‐Dimethyl‐2,3‐dinitrobutan, das Plastiksprengstoff als Markierung zugemischt wird, durch Redox‐Fluoreszenzlöschung sehr schnell, reversibel und mit unerreichter Empfindlichkeit nachweisen (siehe Spektren).
A microporous metal organic framework structure, Zn(2)(bpdc)(2)(bpee).2DMF (DMF: N,N-dimethylformamide), has been synthesized via solvothermal reactions. The compound is a new member of the RPM series (RPM = Rutgers Recyclable Porous Material) that possesses a flexible and recyclable three-dimensional framework containing one-dimensional channels. It exhibits interesting and multifold functionality, including porosity, commensurate adsorption for hydrocarbons, high hydrogen binding energy (determined by isosteric heats of hydrogen adsorption and confirmed by van der Waals density functional calculations) as a result of multifold binding to aromatic ligands (determined by IR spectroscopy), strong photoluminescence emission, and reversible fluorescence quenching properties.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
