A novel bimetallic MOFs combined with gold nanoflakes in electrochemical sensor for measuring bisphenol A.

ABSTRACT: In this paper, a novel bimetallic Fe-Cu metal-organic framework combined with 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (Fe-Cu-BTC) are synthesized using hydrothermal reaction. The bimetallic Fe-Cu-BTC with high BET (1504 cm³ g^-1) and high Langmuir surface area (1831 cm³ g^-1) is composited by gold nanoparticles to improve the conductivity and to develop their synergistic effect. A novel bisphenol A (BPA) sensor was prepared by dropcasting Fe-Cu-BTC on glassy carbon electrodes (GCE) followed by AuNPs electrodeposition. The Fe-Cu-BTC framework were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy studies (TEM), FT-IR, BET measurements and EDX spectra. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) were carried out for surveying the electrochemical properties of the sensors and for the quantification of BPA. Two linear ranges of BPA concentrations 0.1-1.0 μM and 1.0-18 μM with 18 nM limit of detection were obtained. The developed sensor was used to measure the concentration of BPA in samples extracted from rain coat with the recovery ranging from 85.70 to 103.23%.
