ABSTRACT
Electrochemiluminescence (ECL), integrating the characteristics of electrochemistry and fluorescence, has the advantages of high sensitivity and low background. However, only a few studies have been reported for enantioselective sensing based on the ECL-active platform because of the huge challenges in constructing tunable chiral ECL luminophores. Here, we developed a facile strategy to design and prepare ECL-active chiral covalent organic frameworks (COFs) Ph-triPy+-(R)-Ru(II) for enantioselective sensing. In such an artificial structure, the ionic skeleton of COFs was beneficial to the electron transfer on the working electrode surface and the chiral Ru-ligand was used as the chiral ECL-active luminophore. It was found that Ph-triPy+-(R)-Ru(II) coupled with sodium persulfate (Na2S2O8) as the coreactant exhibited obvious ECL signals. More importantly, a clear difference toward l- and d-enantiomers was observed in the response of the ECL intensity, resulting in a uniform recognition law. That is, for amino alcohols, d-enantiomers (1 mM) measured by Ph-triPy+-(R)-Ru(II) showed a higher ECL intensity compared with l-enantiomers. Differently, amino acids (1 mM) gave an inverse recognition phenomenon. The ECL intensity ratios between l- and d-enantiomers (1 mM) are in the range of 1.25-1.94 for serine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, valine, leucine, leucinol, and valinol. What is more interesting is that the ECL intensity was closely related to the concentration of l-amino alcohols and d-amino acids, whereas their inverse configurations remained unchanged. In a word, the present concept demonstrates a feasible direction toward chiral ECL-active COFs and their potential for efficient enantioselective sensing.
