Abstract

Fluorescent agents play an important role in the peroxyoxalate chemiluminescence system. However, the effect of different frameworks on chemiluminescence (CL) has not been explored. Herein two pyrene-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), [Pb2L]n·2nDMA·2nH2O (1) and [(Ca2L)·(DMF)3]n·2.5nDMF·6nH2O (2) (H4L = 5,5'-(-pyrene-1,6-diyl)-diisophthalic acid; DMA = N,N'-dimethylacetamide; DMF = N,N'-dimethylformamide), have been successfully synthesized and are applied to CL. They both exhibit strong and lasting emission that is visible to the naked eye and is significantly stronger than that of the ligand. More importantly, compared with 2, 1 has notably better CL performance. We infer that the reason may be that 1 has higher stability and larger open channels, which can avoid the aggregation of organic ligands as well as provide an effective pathway for the active substance to diffuse into the channels.
