Abstract:Highly stable 3D Ln-MOFs were constructed by a ternary mixed-ligand. The Sm/Dy-MOFs present dual-emission while the Tb/Eu-MOFs exhibit red/green MC emission. The detection of quercetin and Fe3+ion was realized based on the luminescence Eu-MOF under the excitation of 358 nm.
“…Instead, the photoexcitation is released through a phen-centered π*→π transition, which is usually not very effective, as a great deal of the energy is released through a nonemitting relaxation along multiple vibrational states of the antenna ligand. Keeping in mind that the compounds 1-3 are completely isostructural, the coordination matrix 1 with low luminescence activity can be employed for the dilution of photoactive Eu 3+ and/or Tb 3+ cations in the homogeneous crystalline phase [52][53][54][55][56][57]. Such lanthanide doping of the yttrium framework could (i) improve the luminescence efficiency by reducing the concentration quenching known for such luminophores (Eu 3+ , Tb 3+ ) and (ii) allow the mixing of the luminescence colors for more complex optical properties.…”
Three isostructural metal–organic frameworks ([Ln2(phen)2(NO3)2(chdc)2]·2DMF (Ln3+ = Y3+ for 1, Eu3+ for 2 or Tb3+ for 3; phen = 1,10-phenanthroline; H2chdc = trans-1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid) were synthesized and characterized. The compounds are based on a binuclear block {M2(phen)2(NO3)2(OOCR)4} assembled into a two-dime nsional square-grid network containing tetragonal channels with 26% total solvent-accessible volume. Yttrium (1)-, europium (2)- and terbium (3)-based structures emit in the blue, red and green regions, respectively, representing the basic colors of the standard RGB matrix. A doping of Eu3+ and/or Tb3+ centers into the Y3+-based phase led to mixed-metal compositions with tunable emission color and high quantum yields (QY) up to 84%. The bright luminescence of a suspension of microcrystalline 3 in DMF (QY = 78%) is effectively quenched by diluted cinnamaldehyde (cinnamal) solutions at millimolar concentrations, suggesting a convenient and analytically viable sensing method for this important chemical.

“…Salicylic acid (H 2 sal) and deprotonated derivatives are used as carboxylate ligands [4,5]. 1,10-Phenanthroline (phen) often acts as a chelating ligand for its high affinity to metal ions and also plays an important role in the development of supramolecular chemistry [6,7]. Furthermore, lead(II) complexes have received considerable attention due to the coordination and interesting stereochemical activity of the valence shell lone electron pairs [8,9].…”
“…Up to date, syntheses of Ln-MOFs have been essentially carried out through microwave, electrochemical or mechanochemical processes and solvothermal route [ 37 , 38 , 39 ], where high pressure, organic solvents and, in some cases, very long reaction times are required. Recently, the need to develop an up-scalable, green synthetic process, of great interest in terms of industrial requirements, has been the focus of a review addressing the green synthesis of transition metal MOFs [ 40 ].…”
Gadolinium metal-organic frameworks (Gd-MOFs) and Eu-doped Gd-MOFs have been synthesized through a one-pot green approach using commercially available reagents. The 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid (H2-BDC) and 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid (H2-NDC) were chosen as ditopic organic linkers to build the 3D structure of the network. The Gd-MOFs were characterized using powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), FT-IR spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and N2 adsorption–desorption analysis. The Gd-MOF structures were attributed comparing the XRD patterns, supported by the FT-IR spectra, with data reported in the literature for Ln-MOFs of similar lanthanide ionic radius. FE-SEM characterization points to the effect of the duration of the synthesis to a more crystalline and organized structure, with grain dimensions increasing upon increasing reaction time. The total surface area of the MOFs has been determined from the application of the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller method. The study allowed us to correlate the processing conditions and ditopic linker dimension to the network surface area. Both Gd-MOF and Eu-doped Gd-MOF have been tested for sensing of the inorganic ions such as Fe3+ and Cr2O72−.
