Highly Luminescent Eu³⁺-Incorporated Zr-MOFs as Fluorescence Sensors for Detection of Hazardous Organic Compounds in Water and Fruit Samples.

ABSTRACT: Considering the risk of toxic organic compounds to both human health and the environment, highly luminescent Eu³⁺-incorporated amino-functionalized zirconium metal-organic frameworks, namely, Eu/MOF and Eu@MOF were synthesized via the solvothermal method. The synthesized luminescent europium-incorporated MOFs act as outstanding sensor materials for diphenylamine and dinitrobenzene detection in water and fruit samples. The synergistic effect of Eu³⁺ metal ions and amino-functionalized MOFs enhances the luminescent properties of the MOFs improving the fluorescence sensing ability toward the analytes. The enhancement in the detection capacity of the Eu³⁺-incorporated sensors than the sole MOF toward toxic organic compounds was confirmed using the Stern-Volmer
