摘要

A series of dual-lanthanide metal–organic frameworks (MOFs: Dy1-xCex-BTC) have been successfully prepared by hydrothermal method using dysprosium (Dy3+) and cerium (Ce3+) ions as metal sources and 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (H3BTC) as organic ligand, confirmed by XRD patterns and FT-IR spectra, and then the luminescence property, the application in detecting small organic molecules and structural stability have been discussed. Among the samples, Dy0.8Ce0.2-BTC exhibited two strongest emission peaks located at 485 nm and 578 nm under the excitation at 295 nm, which are attributed to the excited electronic transitions of Dy3+ from 4F9/2 to 6H15/2 and 6H13/2. However, Dy0.8Ce0.2-BTC immersed in the solution of acetaldehyde (AH) demonstrated an obvious luminescence quenching with the calculated quenching constant (Ksv) and the limit of detection (LOD) as 7.08 × 103 M−1, 5.36 × 10–7 M and high selectivity among the other tested organic solvents. Meanwhile, it revealed that the MOF could maintain good microstructural and recycle stability in deionized water, indicating a great potential as a turn-off fluorescent sensor for AH detection. Besides, the luminescence quenching mechanism was deduced from competitive absorption.
