Gram-Scale Synthesis of Renal-Clearable Tantalum Nanodots with High Water Solubility for Computed Tomography Imaging In Vivo.

Tantalum (Ta) emerges as a promising element for advanced computed tomography (CT) imaging probes owing to its high X-ray attenuation coefficient and excellent biocompatibility. Nevertheless, the synthesis of renally clear Ta-based imaging probes through simple methods remains a significant challenge. Herein, we introduce a simple and gram-scale approach for the synthesis of renal-clearable Ta nanodots with high water solubility for CT imaging in vivo. The Ta nanodots, coordination polymers, are fabricated via coordination reactions involving Ta(OH)5, citric acid (CA), and hydrogen peroxide. The Ta nanodots exhibit an ultrasmall hydrodynamic diameter (2.8 nm), high water solubility (1.88 g/mL, 688 mg Ta/mL), superior X-ray absorption capacity, gram-scale production capability (>10 g in lab synthesis), renal-clearable ability, and good biocompatibility. The Ta nanodots possess superior CT imaging efficacy across diverse tube voltages, enabling highly sensitive gastrointestinal CT imaging, renal CT imaging, and CT angiography (CTA). Moreover, Ta nanodots maintain robust CT imaging capabilities even at high X-ray energies, and Ta nanodots-based spectral CT achieves metallic artifacts-minimized CTA. The proposed Ta nanodots present substantial potential as a potent CT imaging probe for diagnosing various diseases.

Conjugated Coordination Nanosheets with Molecular Rotors for Pseudocapacitors: Nanoarchitectonics and Enhanced Performance.

High-level pseudocapacitive materials require incorporations of significant redox regions into conductive and penetrable skeletons to enable the creation of devices capable of delivering high power for extended periods. Coordination nanosheets (CNs) are appealing materials for their high natural electrical conductivities, huge explicit surface regions, and semi-one-layered adjusted pore clusters. Thus, rational design of ligands and topological networks with desired electronic structure is required for the advancement in this field. Herein, we report three novel conjugated CNs (RV-10-M, M = Zn, Ni, and Co), by utilizing the full conjugation of the terpyridine-attached flexible tetraphenylethylene (TPE) units as the molecular rotors at the center. We prepare binder-free transparent nanosheets supported on Ni-foam with outstanding pseudocapacitive properties via a hydrothermal route followed by facile exfoliation. Among three CNs, the high surface area of RV-10-Co facilitates fast transport of ions and electrons and could achieve a high specific capacity of 670.8 C/g (1677 F/g) at 1 A/g current density. Besides, the corresponding flexible RV-10-Co possesses a maximum energy density of 37.26 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 171 W kg-1 and 70% capacitance retention even after 1000 cycles.

Effect of structure on sensing performance of nitro explosives with high sensitivity and mechanism of two Tb(III) coordination polymers.

The use of a conjugate N-containing ligand resulted in the decreasing of structural dimensions from 2D network of [Tb(2-pyia)(Ac)(H2O)] (CP1) to 1D chain [Tb(2-pyia)(Ac)(IDP)] (CP2) (2-H2pyia = 5-(pyridin-2-ylmethoxy) isophthalic acid and IDP=imidazo[4,5-f]-[1,10] phenanthroline). Both of them exhibit the characteristic luminescence of Tb ions and could have high fluorescence sensing properties for cefixime and fluridine. The different sensing properties for nitro explosives are manifested as CP1 for nitrobenzene and CP2 for 4-nitrophenol due to the difference in structure. Furthermore, CP2 exhibits the ratiometric fluorescence sensing for Fe3+ ion with a low detection limit of 0.405 µM. The fluorescence sensing mechanism of the two Tb complexes for different analytes was investigated using experimental methods and theoretical calculations. CP1 was used for the detection of Flu residues in the actual system and better results were obtained. The work shows the introduction of the chelated ligand might affect the structural and sensing performance changes of coordination polymers.

Thin Film of Poly-peri-naphthalene (PPN) Fabricated by Direct Laser Writing and Its Use for Humidity Sensing.

Inspired by the versatility of the direct laser writing carbonization (DLWc) technique as well as the metal-ion-assisted coordination polymer of 3,4,9,10-perylene tetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA), in the present study, we present a DLWc-enabled approach for cost-effectively fabricating a poly-peri-naphthalene (PPN) thin film with the advantages of patternability, environmental benignity, and scalability. Optical and scanning electron microscopy, as well as ultraviolet-visible-near-infrared, Fourier transform infrared, Raman, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies, were performed to confirm that the spray-coated thin film of the Mg-PTCDA coordination polymer can be in situ converted into a PPN thin film upon CO2 laser irradiation. The effects of the laser power and Mg2+ concentration on the structure and electrical properties of the laser-processed PPN thin films were investigated. Lastly, we demonstrated that the laser-processed PPN thin films can be used for humidity sensing with characteristics of a rapid response time and excellent hysteresis. It is expected that this new method for fabricating PPN thin films will lead to a wide range of applications of PPN in the fields of sensing, electronics, and energy storage.

An Overview of Various Applications of Cadmium Carboxylate Coordination Polymers.

This review highlights the most recent applications of Cd(II)-carboxylate-based coordination polymers (Cd(II)-CBCPs), such as sensors, catalysts, and storage materials, in comparison with those of Zn(II) counterparts. A wide range of species with luminescence properties were designed by using proper organic fluorophores, especially a carboxylate bridging ligand combined with an ancillary N-donor species, both with a rigid structure. These characteristics, combined with the arrangement in Cd(II)-CBCPs' structure and the intermolecular interaction, enable the sensing behavior of a plethora of various inorganic and organic pollutants. In addition, the Lewis acid behavior of Cd(II) was investigated either in developing valuable heterogeneous catalysts in acetalization, cyanosilylation, Henry or Strecker reactions, Knoevenagel condensation, or dyes or drug elimination from wastewater through photocatalysis. Furthermore, the pores structure of such derivatives induced the ability of some species to store gases or toxic dyes. Applications such as in herbicides, antibacterials, and electronic devices are also described together with their ability to generate nano-CdO species.

Crystal structure of polymeric bis-(3-amino-1H-pyrazole)-cadmium diiodide.

The reaction of cadmium iodide with 3-amino-pyrazole (3-apz) in ethano-lic solution leads to tautomerization of the ligand and the formation of crystals of the title compound, catena-poly[[di-iodido-cadmium(II)]-bis-(µ-3-amino-1H-pyrazole)-κ2 N 2:N 3;κ2 N 3:N 2], [CdI2(C3H5N3)2] n or [CdI2(3-apz)2] n . Its asymmetric unit consists of a half of a Cd2+ cation, an iodide anion and a 3-apz mol-ecule. The Cd2+ cations are coordinated by two iodide anions and two 3-apz ligands, generating trans-CdN4I2 octa-hedra, which are linked into chains by pairs of the bridging ligands. In the crystal, the ligand mol-ecules and iodide anions of neighboring chains are linked through inter-chain hydrogen bonds into a di-periodic network. The inter-molecular contacts were qu-anti-fied using Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots, revealing the relative qu-anti-tative contributions of the weak inter-molecular contacts.

Dilute Pd-Ni Alloy through Low-temperature Pyrolysis for Enhanced Electrocatalytic Hydrogen Oxidation.

Designing highly active and cost-effective electrocatalysts for the alkaline hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) is critical for advancing anion-exchange membrane fuel cells (AEMFCs). While dilute metal alloys have demonstrated substantial potential in enhancing alkaline HOR performance, there has been limited exploration in terms of rational design, controllable synthesis, and mechanism study. Herein, we developed a series of dilute Pd-Ni alloys, denoted as x% Pd-Ni, based on a trace-Pd decorated Ni-based coordination polymer through a facile low-temperature pyrolysis approach. The x% Pd-Ni alloys exhibit efficient electrocatalytic activity for HOR in alkaline media. Notably, the optimal 0.5% Pd-Ni catalyst demonstrates high intrinsic activity with an exchange current density of 0.055 mA cm-2, surpassing that of many other alkaline HOR catalysts. The mechanism study reveals that the strong synergy between Pd single atoms (SAs)/Pd dimer and Ni substrate can modulate the binding strength of proton (H)/hydroxyl (OH), thereby significantly reducing the activation energy barrier of a decisive reaction step. This work offers new insights into designing advanced dilute metal or single-atom-alloys (SAAs) for alkaline HOR and potentially other energy conversion processes.

Synthesis of Cu and Zr-based coordination polymers with N/O donors and investigation of their photocatalytic activity against dye.

The coordination polymers (CPs) of Cu and Zr were synthesized by the hydrothermal method. The orotic acid potassium salt (H3KL) was used as a linker, which coordinates via O-O. Whereas, 4,4'-trimethylenedipyridine (4,4'-TMDP) was used as a bifunctional monomer, which coordinates via N-N. The synthesized CPs were characterized by FTIR, P-XRD, TGA, DSC and SEM. The photocatalytic activity was investigated against methylene blue (MB) under sunlight irradiation. Both Cu-CP and Zr-CP exhibited potential activity for the degradation of MB, which was 72 % for Cu-CP and 93 % for Zr-CP. The band gap of the CPs was also investigated, and the observed value was 2.2 eV. The band gap indicates that these compounds could bring breakthroughs as photocatalysts instead of semiconductors. These kinds of CPs could be used for multiple purposes in industry and in a green environment.

1D p-type molecular-based coordination polymer semiconductor with ultrahigh mobility.

One-dimensional (1D) semiconductor nanostructures exhibit exceptional performance in mitigating short-channel effects and ensuring low power consumption. However, the scarcity of high-mobility p-type 1D materials impedes further advancement. Molecular-based materials offer high designability in structure and properties, making them a promising candidate for 1D p-type semiconductor materials. A molecular-based 1D p-type material was developed under the guidance of coordination chemistry. Cu-HT (HT is the abbreviation of p-hydroxy thiophenol) combines the merits of highly orbital overlap between Cu and S, fully covered surface modification with phenol functional groups, and unique cuprophilic (Cu-Cu) interactions. As such, Cu-HT has a remarkable hole mobility of 27.2 cm2 V-1 s-1, which is one of the highest reported values for 1D molecular-based materials to date and even surpass those of commonly used amorphous silicon as well as the majority of 1D inorganic materials. This achievement underscores the significant potential of coordination polymers in optimizing carrier transport and represents a major advancement in the synthesis of high-performance, 1D p-type semiconductor materials.

Poly[[{µ2-5-[(di-methyl-amino)(thioxo)meth-oxy]benzene-1,3-di-carboxyl-ato-κ4 O 1,O 1':O 3,O 3'}(µ2-4,4'-di-pyridyl-amine-κ2 N 4:N 4')cobalt(II)] di-methyl-formamide hemisolvate monohydrate].

In the crystal structure of the title compound, {[Co(C11H9NSO5)(C10H9N3)]0.5C3H7NO·H2O} n or {[Co(dmtb)(dpa)]·0.5DMF·H2O} n (dmtb2- = 5-[(di-meth-yl-amino)-thioxometh-oxy]-1,3-benzene-dicarboxyl-ate and dpa = 4,4'-di-pyridyl-amine), an assembly of periodic [Co(C11H9NSO5)(C10H9N3)] n layers extending parallel to the bc plane is present. Each layer is constituted by distorted [CoO4N2] octa-hedra, which are connected through the µ 2-coordination modes of both dmtb2- and dpa ligands. Occupationally disordered water and di-meth-yl-formamide (DMF) solvent mol-ecules are located in the voids of the network to which they are connected through hydrogen-bonding inter-actions.

Synthesis, crystal structure and thermal properties of catena-poly[[bis-(4-methyl-pyridine)-nickel(II)]-di-µ-thio-cyanato], which shows an alternating all-trans and cis-cis-trans-coordination of the NiS2Np 2Nt 2 octa-hedra (p = 4-methyl-pyridine, t = thio-cyanate).

The title compound, [Ni(NCS)2(C6H7N)2] n , was prepared by the reaction of Ni(NCS)2 with 4-methyl-pyridine in water. Its asymmetric unit consists of two crystallographically independent NiII cations, of which one is located on a twofold rotational axis whereas the second occupies a center of inversion, two independent thio-cyanate anions and two independent 4-methyl-pyridine co-ligands in general positions. Each NiII cation is octa-hedrally coordinated by two 4-methyl-pyridine coligands as well as two N- and two S-bonded thio-cyanate anions. One of the cations shows an all-trans, the other a cis-cis-trans configuration. The metal centers are linked by pairs of µ-1,3-bridging thio-cyanate anions into [101] chains. X-ray powder diffraction shows that a pure crystalline phase has been obtained and thermogravimetry coupled to differential thermoanalysis reveals that the title compound loses half of the 4-methyl-pyridine coligands and transforms into Ni(NCS)2(C6H7N). Nearly pure samples of this compound can be obtained by thermal annealing and a Rietveld refinement demonstrated that it is isotypic to its recently reported Cd analog [Neumann et al., (2020 ▸). CrystEngComm. 22, 184-194] In its crystal structure, the metal cations are linked by one µ-1,3(N,S)- and one µ-1,3,3(N,S,S)-bridging thio-cyanate anion into single chains that condense via the µ-1,3,3(N,S,S)-bridging anionic ligands into double chains.

Quenching and enhancement mechanisms of a novel Cd-based coordination polymer as a multiresponsive fluorescent sensor for nitrobenzene and aniline.

BACKGROUND: Nitroaromatic compounds are inherently hazardous and explosive, so convenient and rapid detection strategies are needed for the sake of human health and the environment. There is an urgent demand for chemical sensing materials that offer high sensitivity, operational simplicity, and recognizability to effectively monitor nitroaromatic residues in industrial wastewater. Despite its importance, the mechanisms underlying fluorescence quenching or enhancement in fluorescent sensing materials have not been extensively researched. The design and synthesis of multiresponsive fluorescent sensing materials have been a great challenge until now. RESULTS: In this study, a one-dimensional Cd-based fluorescent porous coordination polymer (Cd-CIP-1) was synthesized using 5-(4-cyanobenzyl)isophthalic acid (5-H2CIP) and 4,4'-bis(1-imidazolyl)biphenyl (4,4'-bimp) and used for the selective detection of nitrobenzene in aqueous solution by fluorescence quenching, with a limit of detection of 1.38 × 10-8 mol L-1. The presence of aniline in the Cd-CIP-1 solution leads to the enhancement of fluorescence property. Density functional theory and time-dependent density functional theory calculations were carried out to elucidate the mechanisms of the fluorescence changes. This study revealed that the specific pore size of Cd-CIP-1 facilitates analyte screening and enhances host-guest electron coupling. Furthermore, π-π interactions and hydrogen bond between Cd-CIP-1 and the analytes result in intermolecular orbital overlap and thereby boosting electron transfer efficiency. The different electron flow directions in NB@Cd-CIP-1 and ANI@Cd-CIP-1 lead to fluorescence quenching and enhancement. SIGNIFICANCE AND NOVELTY: The multiresponsive coordination polymer (Cd-CIP-1) can selectively detect nitrobenzene and recognize aniline in aqueous solutions. The mechanism of fluorescence quenching and enhancement has been thoroughly elucidated through a combination of density functional theory and experimental approaches. This study presents a promising strategy for the practical implementation of a multiresponsive fluorescent chemical sensor.

Optical Amplification at 1.5 µm in ErIII Coordination Polymer-Doped Waveguides Based on Intramolecular Energy Transfer.

9,9-bis (diphenylphosphorylphenyl) fluorene (FDPO) and dibenzotetrathienoacene (DBTTA), are synthesized as the neutral and anionic ligands, respectively, to prepare the ErIII coordination polymer [Er(DBTTA)3(FDPO)]n. Based on the intramolecular energy transfer, optical gains at 1.5 µm are demonstrated in [Er(DBTTA)3(FDPO)]n-doped polymer waveguides under excitations of low-power light-emitting diodes (LEDs) instead of laser pumping. A ligand-sensitization scheme between organic ligands and Er3+ ions under an excitation of an ultraviolet (UV) LED is established. Relative gains of 10.5 and 8.5 dB cm-1 are achieved at 1.53 and 1.55 µm, respectively, on a 1-cm-long SU-8 channel waveguide with a cross-section of 2 × 3 µm2 and a 1.5-µm-thick [Er(DBTTA)3(FDPO)]n-doped polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) as upper cladding. The ErIII coordination polymer [Er(DBTTA)3(FDPO)]n can be conveniently integrated with various low-loss inorganic waveguides to compensate for optical losses in the C-band window. Moreover, by relying on the intramolecular energy transfer and UV LED top-pumping technology, it is easy to achieve coupling packaging of erbium-doped waveguide amplifiers (EDWAs) with pump sources in planar photonic integrated chips, effectively reducing the commercial costs.

A Hydrophilic Metal Azolate Coordination Polymer for In Situ Encapsulation of Haloalkane Dehalogenase with Enhanced Enzymatic Performance.

Encapsulating enzymes within metal-organic frameworks such as zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) has been demonstrated to enhance enzymatic performance under harsh conditions. However, by computer-aided analysis, we revealed that highly hydrophobic organic ligands and unfavorable metal ions could greatly impair the activity of haloalkane dehalogenase DhaA by directly interacting with the catalytic sites, causing an extremely low activity of DhaA after encapsulating within ZIF-8. We also found that the presence of a protecting polymer could protect DhaA from the damage of organic ligands and metal ions and that a positively charged amino acid could increase the DhaA activity. Based on the simulations and experimental observations, we have designed to coencapsulate DhaA with poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) and lysine (Lys) within the amorphous Co-based metal azolate coordination polymer (CoCP). The as-prepared immobilized enzyme (DhaA/PVP/Lys@CoCP) exhibited significantly increased activity (91.5 times higher than that of DhaA@ZIF-8), dramatically enhanced thermostability at 50-70 °C, greatly improved catalytic performance in several organic solvent solutions, and good recyclability (over 75% of the initial activity after 10 cycles). The superiority of the immobilized enzyme was also demonstrated with a substrate frequently detected in the real world. In addition to the protective effect of PVP and positive effect of Lys, experimental and computational investigations unveiled other two favorable aspects that contributed to the enhanced enzymatic performance: (1) high hydrophilicity of the immobilization material and (2) the use of Co2+ with a minimal negative effect on DhaA. The research has thus provided a promising immobilized DhaA with favorable catalytic performance and great potential in industrial applications.

An Oxalato-Bridged Cu(II)-Based 1D Polymer Chain: Synthesis, Structure, and Adsorption of Organic Dyes.

In the current research, we prepared a polymeric framework, {[Cu(C2O4)(C10H8N2)]·H2O·0.67(CH3OH)]}n (1) (where C2O4 = oxalic acid; C10H8N2 = 2,2-bipyridine), and explored this compound for adsorption of methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO). The crystal structure of the compound consists of a Cu(ox)(bpy) unit connected via oxalate to form a 1D polymeric chain. This polymeric chain has adsorption capacities of 194.0 and 167.3 mg/g for MB and MO, respectively. The removal rate is estimated to be 77.6% and 66.9% for MB and MO, respectively. The plausible mechanisms for adsorption are electrostatic, π-π interaction, and OH-π interaction for dye stickiness. The adsorbent surface exhibits a negative charge that produces the electrostatic interaction, resulting in excellent adsorption efficiency at pH 7 and 8. The pseudo-first-order kinetic model is selected for the adsorption of MB and MO on the adsorbent. The reported compound has remarkable efficiency for sorption of organic dyes and can be useful in wastewater treatment.

A Novel Dinuclear Complex-PLC Composite Material as Fluorescent Switch in Treatment on Osteoarthritis.

In this study, we synthesized a novel Co(II)-containing coordination compound (CP) [Co2(MMBA)2(HPT)2(H2O)2]·2H2O (1) through a solvothermal reaction of Co(NO3)6·6H2O with 3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1 H-1,2,4-triazole (HPT) and 2-(4-methylbenzoyl)benzoic acid (HMMBA). Fluorescence spectroscopy confirmed that this compound exhibited superior blue fluorescence properties compared to the original ligands. Further, aspirin (ASA) was loaded onto this CP via physical adsorption to create CP-ASA. Interestingly, the fluorescence properties of the CP decreased with the loading of the drug but were restored upon drug release. Leveraging the unique optical properties and biocompatibility of Polymer Liquid Crystal (PLC), we further encapsulated CP-ASA, forming the CP-PLC@ASA composite. The target product was confirmed through various characterization techniques including Elemental Analysis (EA), Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Powder X-Ray Diffraction (PXRD), and Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA). Moreover, the biological activity of this composite was evaluated in vitro for osteoarthritis, and its potential mechanisms were explored.

A Zn(II) Coordination Polymer for Fluorescent Turn-Off Selective Sensing of Heavy Metal Cation and Toxic Inorganic Anions.

A novel coordination polymer [Zn(atyha)2]n (1) (Hatyha = 2-(2-aminothiazole-4-yl)-2- hydroxyiminoacetic acid) was constructed by hydrothermal reaction of Zn2+ with Hatyha ligand. CP 1 exhibits a 2D (4,4)-connected topological framework with Schläfli symbol of {44·62}, where atyha- anions serve as tridentate ligands, bridging with Zn2+ through carboxylate, thiazole and oxime groups. CP 1 displays a strong ligand-based photoluminescence at 390 nm in the solid state, and remains significantly structurally stable in water. Interestingly, it can be utilized as a fluorescent probe for selective and sensitive sensing of Fe3+, Cr2O72- and MnO4- through the fluorescent turn-off effect with limit of detection (LOD) of 3.66 × 10-6, 2.38 × 10-5 and 2.94 × 10-6 M, respectively. Moreover, the efficient recyclability for detection of Fe3+ and Cr2O72- is better than that for MnO4-. The mechanisms of fluorescent quenching involve reversible overlap of UV-Vis absorption bands of the analytes (Fe3+, Cr2O72- and MnO4-) with fluorescence excitation and emission bands for CP 1, respectively.

Modifying Proton Relay into Bioinspired Dye-Based Coordination Polymer for Photocatalytic Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer.

Proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) imparts an energetic advantage over single electron transfer in activating inert substances. Natural PCET enzyme catalysis generally requires tripartite preorganization of proton relay, substrate-bound active center, and redox mediator, making the processes efficient and precluding side reactions. Inspired by this, a heterogeneous photocatalytic PCET system was established to achieve higher PCET driving forces by modifying proton relays into anthraquinone-based anionic coordination polymers. The proximally separated proton relays and photoredox-mediating anthraquinone moiety allowed pre-assembly of inert substrate between them, merging proton and electron into unsaturated bonds by photoreductive PCET, which enhanced reaction kinetics compared with the counter catalyst without proton relay. This photocatalytic PCET method was applied to a broad-scoped reduction of aryl ketones, unsaturated carbonyls, and aromatic compounds. The distinctive regioselectivities for the reduction of isoquinoline derivatives were found to occur on the carbon-ring sides. PCET-generated radical intermediate of quinoline could be trapped by alkene for proton relay-assisted Minisci addition, forming the pharmaceutical aza-acenaphthene scaffold within one step. When using heteroatom(X)-H/C-H compounds as proton-electron donors, this protocol could activate these inert bonds through photooxidative PCET to afford radicals and trap them by electron-deficient unsaturated compounds, furnishing the direct X-H/C-H functionalization.

Design and preparation of a multi-responsive Cd-based fluorescent coordination polymer for smart sensing of nitrobenzene and ornidazole.

The improper utilization of nitrobenzene (NB) and ornidazole (ORN) has resulted in irreversible effects on the environment. By combining experimental investigation, density functional theory (DFT) calculations, and machine learning, an effective green strategy for detecting NB and ORN in aqueous solutions can be developed. In this study, a one-dimensional Cd-based coordination polymer (Cd-HCIA-3) was designed and synthesized using 5-((4-carboxybenzyl)oxy)isophthalic acid and rigid 2,2'-bipyridine under solvothermal reaction conditions. Cd-HCIA-3 exhibits excellent fluorescence properties and stability in aqueous solutions. DFT calculations were performed to predict the fluorescence sensing performance of Cd-HCIA-3, revealing that photoinduced electron transfer is the key mechanism for inducing fluorescence quenching in the presence of NB and ORN, with weak molecular interactions promoting electron transfer. Fluorescence sensing experiments were conducted to verify the DFT results, showing that Cd-HCIA-3 can selectively detect NB and ORN in aqueous solutions with limits of detection of 7.22 × 10-8 and 1.31 × 10-7 mol/L, respectively. This study's findings provide valuable insights into the design and synthesis of fluorescent coordination polymers for target analytes.
