Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) metal-organic framework sheets, in comparison to the 3D analogues, offer potential advantages for intercalation of guest components between the layers, exfoliation/dispersion into solutions, and processing into thin films. As a versatile platform for leveraging organic functions, the 2D Zr(IV)-carboxylate net here features a dendritic Sierpinski tritopic linker with conjugated alkyne branches and a photoactive triphenylamine core. The 2D solid can be easily dispersed in water and many other solvents, resulting in stable and fluorescent suspension for sensing nitro aromatic compounds and Fe3+ ions with high quenching efficiencies and ultralow limits of detection. Also, the neighboring alkyne units of the coordination solid undergo thermal cyclization (e.g., at 320 °C) to form cross-linked nanographene-like components to afford robust porosity, which substantially takes up PdCl2 (atomic ratio of Zr/Pd, 2.4:1) to afford a heterogeneous catalyst for Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions─direct in air and without the need for phosphine ligands.
