Lanthanide-based coordination polymer nanoparticles (Ln-CPNs) are studied for analytical and biomedical sensing, mainly utilizing the luminescent properties of lanthanides. However, the inclusion of fluorescent guest molecules within the nanoparticles can lead to a stimuli-responsive system with modulated photo-physical properties that can be useful for detecting analytes. In this work, we have synthesized cerium(III) coordination polymer nanoparticles using adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecules as the ligands. The porous polymeric structure enables CPNs for reversible inclusion and release of thioflavin-T (ThT), which is a weakly emissive dye in the free state but becomes highly emissive when incorporated into the Ce-ATP CPNs. Modulation of the photo-physical properties of ThT-incorporated CPNs in response to the radiotoxic and environmentally alarming uranyl ion (UO22+) has been used for its detection in aqueous medium in the range of 0-20 μM by fluorimetry with an LOD of 80 ng mL-1 (0.34 μM) in deionized water without interference from the most commonly occurring metal ions. Furthermore, the sensing platform has been successfully utilized for UO22+ determination in seawater sample without any pre-treatment and adjustment of pH.
