How to identify a smoker: a salient crystallographic approach to detect thiocyanate content

Abstract

A new Co based sensor for thiocyanate recognition by formation of the dimeric crystals is designed to distinguish a smoker from a non-smoker.

Amine- and Imine-Functionalized Mn-Based MOF as an Unusual Turn-On and Turn-Off Sensor for d10 Heavy Metal Ions and an Efficient Adsorbent to Capture Iodine

“…Recently, fluorescentbased sensors emerged as promising candidates for the detection of heavy metal ions through the change in fluorescence intensity or wavelength shifts, and these also have marked virtues such as easy operation, high sensitivity, and selectivity, which makes them excellent alternatives. 11 Metal−organic frameworks (MOFs) emerged as a new kind of ordered, functional, hybrid material composed of metal ion/ clusters and organic ligands assembled by strong coordination bonds. 12 The strategy of incorporation of secondary building units (SBUs) is extensively used for the construction of MOFs to achieve high framework stability.…”

“…Thus, developing a simple, rapid, and highly sensitive method remains a challenge in the domain of environmental protection. Recently, fluorescent-based sensors emerged as promising candidates for the detection of heavy metal ions through the change in fluorescence intensity or wavelength shifts, and these also have marked virtues such as easy operation, high sensitivity, and selectivity, which makes them excellent alternatives .

A review of metal–organic framework (MOF) materials as an effective photocatalyst for degradation of organic pollutants

“…2.1 Fundamentals of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of porous materials constructed by metal nodes/clusters and organic linkers, forming numerous architectures. [43][44][45][46] The metal ions can create compounds with unique coordination modes, having tetrahedral, trigonal bipyramidal, square planar, and octahedral geometries. 47 Meanwhile, the most used organic linkers are polytopic carboxylates and other aromatic heterocyclic molecules, facilitating coordination chemistry with the metal ions.…”

A mini review on metal–organic framework-based electrode materials for capacitive deionization

“…MOFs are a group of crystalline, porous materials constructed from two types of primary units, an organic ligand, and a metal cluster. 21,[67][68][69] Under suitable synthesis conditions, researchers have developed various MOFs for applications ranging from gas storage, photocatalysis, and energy storage (Fig. 2).…”
