An amino-decorated dual-functional metal–organic framework for highly selective sensing of Cr(<scp>iii</scp>) and Cr(<scp>vi</scp>) ions and detection of nitroaromatic explosives

Abstract

A 3D NH₂–Zn-MOF has been successfully constructed <italic>via</italic> a hydrothermal reaction. It exhibits high selectivity and sensitivity towards Cr(<sc>iii</sc>), Cr(<sc>vi</sc>) ions and nitroaromatic compounds.
