Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks with structures including metal ions and organic connectors have shown vast applications like catalysis, gas storage, drug delivery, and detection. In this review, applications in the detection of metal ions, explosives, pesticides, and antibiotics by luminescent metal–organic frameworks is reviewed. Metal-organic frameworks have diverse topology, pores of various sizes and shapes, vast surface area, and high number of active sites which make them more suitable for chemical detectors as compared to traditional detectors. The spectrum of this review covers antibiotics detection because their misuse has significant environmental and health consequences. This review also covers pesticide residues detection which are toxic for organisms as well as the environment. Metal contamination is another major problem, their detection is very much required and is also addressed in this review. Luminescent metal–organic framework (LMOFs) were reported to be materials for detecting various explosive chemicals. The ease of use, adaptability and tunable photoluminescence capabilities make them excellent detectors.
