Article Abstract

In this study, an advanced imidazole-functionalized 2D metal-organic framework (HBU-169), {[Cd(L)HO](HO)}·(4HO)·(DMF) was presented, which possesses both fluorescent properties and oxidase-like activity. HBU-169 demonstrates the ability to detect fluazinam (FLU) via fluorescent and colorimetric modes. In the fluorescent mode, a pronounced fluorescence quenching is observed, with the limit of detection (LOD) of 1.68 μM. The mechanism may involve dynamic quenching process and competitive absorption of excitation energy. The method could be utilized for rapid in-situ imaging detection of pesticide residues on cabbage surface. In the colorimetric mode, a semi-quantitative test paper was developed, featuring visible color changes and smartphone-assisted detection. The mechanism was attributed to the catalytic effect of HBU-169. A high-throughput method combining fluorescent and colorimetric modes were established for FLU detection. This study provides a promising avenue for assessing the safety of FLU-contaminated food and holds potential for application in ensuring the safety of other agricultural products.

The growing global population and rising demand for pharmaceuticals highlight the need for efficient drug synthesis and detection methods. This study presents a bifunctional imidazole-functionalized Hf(IV)-based metal-organic framework (MOF), 1 as a heterogeneous catalyst for synthesizing 1,4-dihydropyridines (1,4-DHPs), which are key moieties in the synthesis of drugs used for cardiovascular treatments. The solvent-free activated form of 1, labeled as 1' catalyzes both Biginelli and Hantzsch reactions under mild conditions.

Enhancing the Built-In Electric Field of Thickness-Insensitive Small Molecule Cathode Interlayers for High-Efficiency and Stable Organic Solar Cells.

The built-in electric field (BEF) is proposed as a critical design parameter for optimizing small-molecule cathode interlayer materials (SM-CIMs) in organic solar cells (OSCs). By strategically transforming imidazole-functionalized triads from a donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) to an A-D-A configuration and replacing the A unit with a more electron-deficient moiety, we developed three triads: (TBT)NDI, (NDI)TBT, and (PDI)TBT, each exhibiting progressively enhanced BEF, along with improved conductivity, work function (WF) adjustability, energy level alignment, and crystallinity. Additionally, the A-D-A triads facilitate superior electronic communication with both non-fullerene acceptors (NFAs) and polymer donors, enhancing photoexcitation utilization and reducing triplet state formation.

The widespread use of herbicides like dinitro--cresol (DNOC) and veterinary drugs such as furaltadone (FLT) has surged to meet agricultural and animal husbandry demands, raising significant health and environmental concerns due to their extensive use and unregulated disposal. To address this issue, herein, we developed an imidazole-functionalized metal-organic framework (MOF)-based fluorometric dual sensor for rapid and selective detection of these analytes in aqueous medium. The present MOF-based probe demonstrated 82% fluorescence quenching upon DNOC introduction, whereas 89% quenching occurred in the presence of FLT.
