Fluorescent metal–organic framework for selective sensing of nitroaromatic explosives

Abstract

Highly luminescent micrometre-sized fine particles of a Zn(II) metal–organic framework (MOF) of a new π-electron rich tricarboxylate dispersed in ethanol is demonstrated as a selective sensory material for the detection of nitroaromatic explosives via a fluorescence quenching mechanism.
