Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), as a new water pollutant emerging in recent years, has potential hazards to the environment. The difficult degradation characteristics of NSAIDs lead to long-term accumulation in the natural environment, which will inevitably cause incalculable damage to human health. In this work, for practical application considerations, MIL-53(Al) type MOF [Al(OH)(TDC)]‧1.5H2O‧0.7DMF (MIL-53-TDC, TDC = 2,5-thiophene dicarboxylic acid) with good water stability is selected as the sensing main body. The ligand TDC was chosen for two reasons: one is as an antenna ligand, which can sensitize Eu3+ ions to emit characteristic fluorescence; the other is as binding site that the sulfur atoms on the thiophene ring can introduce Eu3+ ions through coordination. Thus, Eu3+ functionalized MIL-53-TDC hybrid materials (Eu@MIL-53-TDC) were developed as a fluorescence sensor for the detection of two kinds of NSAIDs, S-ibuprofen (S-IBP) and diclofenac (DCF). The concentration range of S-IBP and DCF detected by the prepared sensors is 0.001–0.07 mM (LOD = 0.5 μM) and 0.0005–0.1 mM (LOD = 0.2 μM), respectively. Moreover, this sensor not only can achieve rapid (3 min) and sensitive analysis of these two NSAIDs but also has a satisfactory recovery for the detection of S-IBP and DCF in serum and tap water.
