Zn(<scp>ii</scp>)/Cd(<scp>ii</scp>)-based metal–organic frameworks: crystal structures, Ln(<scp>iii</scp>)-functionalized luminescence and chemical sensing of dichloroaniline as a pesticide biomarker

Abstract

Four new MOFs containing transition metals and mixed ligands were synthesized. Then Ln(<sc>iii</sc>)@<bold>4</bold> hybrids are successfully fabricated by cation-exchange. Significantly, Tb(<sc>iii</sc>)@<bold>4</bold> can be first regarded as an efficient sensor for biomarker dichloroanilines.
