Article Abstract

Cytisine (CTS) is a useful medicine for treating nervous disorders and smoking addiction, and exploring a convenient method to detect CTS is of great significance for long-term/home medication to avoid the risk of poisoning, but it is full of challenges. Here, a modified metal-organic framework sensor Tb@Zn-TDA-80 with dual emission centers was prepared using a post-modified luminescence center strategy. The obtained Tb@Zn-TDA-80 can serve as a CTS sensor with high sensitivity and selectivity. To achieve portable detection, Tb@Zn-TDA-80 was further fabricated as a membrane sensor, M-Tb@Zn-TDA-80, which displayed an obvious CTS-responsive color change by simply dropping a CTS solution onto its surface. Benefiting from this unique functionality, M-Tb@Zn-TDA-80 successfully realized the visual detection and quantitative monitoring of CTS in the range of 5.26-52.6 mM by simply scanning the color with a smartphone. The results of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and theoretical computation illustrated that the high sensing efficiency of Tb@Zn-TDA-80 for CTS was attributed to the N-H⋅⋅⋅π and π⋅⋅⋅π interactions between the ligand and CTS. And luminescence quenching may result from the intramolecular charge transfer. This study provides a convenient method for ensuring long-term medication safety at home.

The complex physiological environment of living organisms is a major hurdle for in situ monitoring of vital cellular activities. Here, we propose that the surface plasmon-coupled emission (SPCE) biointerface sensing system prepared by modifying covalent organic frameworks (COFs) on metal substrates, can be a powerful tool for biointerface sensing. We have successfully developed a novel pH-responsive fluorescent COF nanoprobe, where fluorophores were precisely post-modified into intrinsically enriched chemically reactive sites within the nanoporous structure.

5-Hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), a key neurotransmitter, is an important biomarker for carcinoid syndrome. We herein construct a ratiometric luminescent sensor by covalently coupling fluorescein 5-isothiocyanate (FITC) with lanthanide metal-organic frameworks (Ln-MOFs). In the presence of 5-HT, the emission of FITC increases while the emission of Eu decreases, accompanied by a distinct color change of emission from orange to green.

Due to the dual functions of fluorescence detection and adsorption, fluorescent covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have attracted significant attention. However, common fluorescent COFs often exhibit unsatisfactory fluorescence properties and selectivity, coupled with poor solution dispersibility, which limit their effectiveness in detection and adsorption applications. In response, a novel post-modified fluorescent COF (named AZC-COF) was synthesized by connecting a fluorescent COF (COF-TB) with 2-azidacetic acid through a copper-catalyzed aide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction.

Nitrile compounds are abundant, stable, cheap, and readily available natural and chemical industrial sources. However, the efficient conversion of nitrile monomers to functional polymers is mostly limited due to their inert reactivity, and developing efficient polymerizations based on nitrile monomers under very mild conditions is still a big challenge. In this work, a facile and powerful base-catalyzed acetonitrile-azide click polymerization was successfully established under ambient conditions.
