Three robust Cd(II) coordination polymers as bifunctional luminescent probes for efficient detection of pefloxacin and Cr2O72- in water.

The accurate and rapid detection of antibiotics and heavy-metal-based toxic oxo-anions in water media employing coordination polymers (CPs) as luminescent probes has attracted a lot of attention. Three new Cd(II)-based ternary CPs derived from first-presented L ligands, including [Cd(DCTP)(L)(OH)]n (1), [Cd(TBTA)(L)(OH)]n (2), and [Cd(NPHT)(L)(H2O)]n (3) (L = 2-((1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl)-5,6-dimethyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole, H2DCTP = 2,5-dichloroterephthalic acid, H2TBTA = tetrabromoterephthalic acid and H2NPHT = 3-nitrophthalic acid), were successfully assembled and characterized. 1 and 2 show 2D hcb layers, which can be further extended into a 3D supramolecular framework via classic hydrogen bonding interactions. 3 features a 1D double chain that ultimately spreads into a 2D network through weak hydrogen bonding interactions. With the advantages of high stability and excellent luminescent properties, the three CPs display high sensitivity, selectivity, and good anti-interference for the sensing of pefloxacin (PEF) and Cr2O72- ions (LOD values toward PEF: 3.82 × 10-7 mol L-1 for 1, 4.06 × 10-7 mol L-1 for 2, and 1.36 × 10-8 mol L-1 for 3, and toward Cr2O72- ions: 5.97 × 10-7 mol L-1 for 1, 5.87 × 10-7 mol L-1 for 2, and 8.21 × 10-8 mol L-1 for 3). These CPs are the first examples of bifunctional luminescent sensors to detect PEF and Cr2O72- in aqueous solutions. The luminescence quenching mechanisms are explored in detail.

Advanced thymic lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma with bone marrow metastases treated by immunotherapy combined with antiangiogenesis therapy: a case report.

Thymic lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma (LELC) is a rare primary malignant neoplasm originating from the thymus. Thymic LELC diagnosis is often terminal when diagnosed, some patients have lost the opportunity for surgery. Platinum- and anthracycline-based systemic chemotherapy are the first-line treatment plan; however, there is no clear consensus on therapy when first-line treatment fails because of the lack of cases of advanced thymic LELC. Here was a rare case of advanced thymic LELC with bone marrow metastasis at relapse, which is reported in a patient who responded well to toripalimab combined with anlotinib therapy. The treatment showed tolerable toxicity with good antitumor activity in the patient. As far as we know, this is the first case that the combination of toripalimab with anlotinib is effective in controlling advanced thymic LELC with bone marrow metastasis. The case reports represent an essential means by which an effective therapy for advanced thymic LELC may not be practical given the low frequency of a thymic LELC with multiple metastases.

The two MOFs are highly thermally durable and water-stable in a wide pH range from 3 to 12. Interestingly, 1 and 2 represent the first reported examples of multi-responsive probes based on MOFs for selectively detecting levofloxacin, benzaldehyde, and Fe3+ ions with reusability. The luminescence sensing mechanisms of the two CPs were explored in detail.

A robust 3D zinc(II)-organic framework for efficient dual detection of acetylacetone and Tb3+ ions.

There has been broad attention to the recognition and detection of ions and organic small molecules due to their essential roles in environmental systems. However, dual-functional probes have seldom been developed for sensing organic constituents and lanthanide ions. A new 3D pillared Zn(ii)-organic framework [Zn3(L)(DCTP)3]n (1) (L = 1,4-di(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)butane and H2DCTP = 2,5-dichloroterephthalic acid) was hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized, and features a unique 3D 4,4,4,6-connected framework containing approximately 9.99 × 9.78 Å2 cubic channels. 1 displays excellent thermal and pH stability and can act as a novel "turn-on" fluorescent probe for highly selectively sensitizing Tb3+ ions through an "antenna effect". Furthermore, 1 is a dual-response fluorescent sensor for monitoring acetylacetone and Tb3+ ions with rapid response times (within 1 min), low limits of detection (LOD) (5.02 × 10-6/1.15 × 10-8 M, separately) and great anti-interference ability and recyclability towards the analytes. The related sensing mechanisms for detecting analytes are also investigated in detail.

The photoluminescence properties and photocatalytic properties of the nanoparticles of CP 1 and Ag/CP 1 on the degradation of methylene blue (MB) were investigated, Ag/CP 1 exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity under UV and visible light, which can be attributed to the strong interactions between Ag nanorods and CP 1, which lead to electron-hole pair separation between Ag nanorods and CP 1. In addition, the photocatalytic mechanism is also carried out by introducing t-butyl alcohol (TBA) as a widely used ·OH scavenger. The influence of ultrasound irradiation time and power on the morphology and size of the nanostructure CP 1 were studied. The results indicated that a decrease in time and an increase in power led to a decrease of particle size.

Single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals CP 1 is a 3D 3-fold interpenetrated dia network with large well-defined pores. It is found that CP 1 revealed highly sensitive luminescence sensing for Fe3+ ions in acetonitrile solution with a high quenching efficiency of KSV=2541.238L·mol-1 and a low detection limit of 3.2µM (S/N=3). Moreover, the photocatalytic efficiency of 1 for degradation of methylene blue could reach 82.8% after 135min. Therefore, this coordination polymer could be viewed as multifunctional material for selectively sensing Fe3+ ions and effectively degrading dyes.

The effects of different dyes, different powers of UV light, and different amounts of catalyst CP 1 on the photocatalytic efficiency were also explored. Finally, the mechanism of the luminescence quenching effect toward Fe3+ ions, electroreduction of nitrite ions, and photocatalytic degradation of different dyes have been investigated in detail.

The photocatalytic mechanism is carried out by introducing t-butyl alcohol (TBA) as a widely used OH scavenger. Furthermore, the influence of solvents, reaction time, and ultrasound irradiation temperature on the morphology and size of the nanostructure CPs 1 and 2 were investigated. The results indicated that an increase of time and ultrasound irradiation temperature decreased the nanostructured size.

CPs 1 and 2 were structurally characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction and single crystal X-ray diffraction. CP 1 features a 3D 3,3,4,4,5-connected framework with an unprecedented {42·8·102·12}{43·6·86}2{43}2{46}2{62·8}2 topology, which represents the first example of CPs with such a topology. CP 2 possesses a three-fold interpenetration 3D framework with mog topology. The distinct structures of the two CPs may result from diverse coordination modes of the (L)4- ligands and different structural characteristics of rigid or semi-rigid N-donor ligands.

A possible photocatalytic mechanism is speculated by introducing t-butyl alcohol (TBA) as a widely used ˙OH scavenger.

Construction of noninterpenetrating and interpenetrating Co(ii) networks with halogenated carboxylate modulated by auxiliary N-donor co-ligands: structural diversity, electrochemical and photocatalytic properties.

Moreover, both CP 1 and CP 2 manifest promising photocatalytic activities (photodegradation efficiency using CP 1 is 90.8% and using CP 2 is 87.2%) for the degradation of methylene blue (MB) under UV light irradiation. A possible photocatalytic mechanism is suggested by introducing t-butyl alcohol (TBA) as a widely used ˙OH scavenger.
