Abstract
A stable luminescent Cd-MOF, formulated as [Cd(L)0.5(4, 4′-bpy)0.5]·H2O (1), (H4L = 1, 1′-ethylbiphenyl −3, 3′, 5, 5′- tetracarboxylic acid, 4, 4′ -bpy = 4, 4′-bipyridine), is acquired under solvothermal conditions. 1 exhibits stability in the pH range from 1.5 to 12.2 and in different organic solvents. 1 can detect tetracycline and nitrobenzene by fluorescence quenching with high sensitivity and selectivity. The detection limits are 0.14 μM and 14 nM, respectively. Interestingly, 1 can encapsulate Tb3+ and sensitize its characteristic peaks. Moreover, the fluorescent ink is prepared by using the luminescent properties of the Tb3+@Cd-MOF. The light of the fluorescent ink disappears in an acid gas HCl atmosphere and then reappears in an alkaline gas ammonia atmosphere. This phenomenon can be repeated and the reason for this phenomenon is also explained in the article. Therefore, Tb3+@Cd-MOF has huge application potential in information encryption.
