A general large-scale synthesis approach for crystalline porous materials (open access)

A general large-scale synthesis approach for crystalline porous materials

Article describes how crystalline porous materials such as covalent organic frameworks (COFs) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and porous organic changes (POCs) have been widely applied in various fields with outstanding performances. In this work, the authors developed a general approach comprising high pressure homogenization (HPH), which can realize large-scale synthesis of crystalline porous materials including COFs, MOFs, and POCs under benign conditions.

A Novel ppb-Level Sensitive and Highly Selective Europium-Based Diketone Luminescent Sensor for the Quantitative Detection of Aluminum Ions in Water Samples (open access)

A Novel ppb-Level Sensitive and Highly Selective Europium-Based Diketone Luminescent Sensor for the Quantitative Detection of Aluminum Ions in Water Samples

Article describes how a novel Eu(tta)3([4,4′-(t-bu)2-2,2′-bpy)] complex (tta-thenoyltrifluoroacetone), a ratiometric luminescent-based optical sensor for the quantitative determination of aluminum ion, is synthesized and characterized using XRD and 1H NMR. The sensor reported here is tested for 11 common cations and shows no interference on sensitivity. According to the authors, this is the first known Eu-based luminescence sensor that successfully exhibited the ability to detect aluminum ions in ppb levels in aqueous environments.
