Fluorescent porous organic cage with good water solubility is of great interest but still challenging for its fluorescent sensing application. Poor water solubility and single signal of most previous probes are unfavorable for the monitoring of Au generated from the potential dissociation of gold nanoparticles in environmental and biological samples. Here we report a water-soluble porous organic cage as a ratiometric fluorescent probe for Au in aqueous solution. The prepared porous organic cage with good water solubility showed specific redox interaction with Au in pH 5, leading to the change of dual emission at 420 and 484 nm. Based on the change of fluorescence ratio, a simple ratiometric sensing method for Au from the dissociation of gold nanoparticles in aqueous solution was developed. The proposed method gave a calibration function of F/F = 0.0370[Au] + 0.5689 (where F/F is the intensity ratio of fluorescence at 484 nm to that at 420 nm; [Au] in μM) (R = 0.9975) in the concentration range of 1-60 μM, the limit of detection (3s) of 8 nM, and the relative standard deviation of 0.26% for 10 replicate detections of 50 μM Au. The recoveries of spiked Au in domestic wastewater and human serum samples ranged from 94.66% to 105.61%.

Ln-MOFs, composed of lanthanide ions and functional organic ligands, are porous materials with tunable structures and unique luminescent properties. However, the interplay between ligand AIE properties and the framework's "antenna effect" on MOF morphology is understudied. Here, Tb-D-Cam-TPTB was synthesized via solvothermal method using TPTB (persulfurated arene) as the primary ligand, D-Cam as the auxiliary ligand, and Tb3+ as the metal ion.

Vinylene-linked Covalent Organic Frameworks (V-2D-COFs) are a class of promising porous organic materials that feature fully π-conjugated structures, high crystallinity, ultrahigh chemical stability, and extraordinary optoelectronic properties. However, the types of reactions and the availability of monomers for synthesizing linked COFs are considerably limited by the irreversibility of the C═C bond, and the complete π-conjugated structure restricts their in-depth research in hydrophilicity, membrane materials, and proton conductivity. Postsynthetic modification (PSM), which can avoid these problems by incorporating functional moieties into the predetermined framework, provides an alternative way to construct diverse V-2D-COFs.

This work presents the synthesis and characterization of three isomorphous lanthanide-based metal-organic frameworks (Ln-MOFs) (Ln3+ = Eu (1), Tb (2), and Sm (3)) supported by a pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide-based linker offering appended arylcarboxylate groups. Single crystal X-ray diffraction studies highlight that these Ln-MOFs present three-dimensional porous architectures offering large cavities decorated with hydrogen bonding (H-bonding) groups. These Ln-MOFs display noteworthy luminescent characteristics.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) hold promise in heterogeneous metal catalysis benefiting from their robust, crystalline, and porous structures. However, synthetic challenges persist in prolonged crystallization times, limited metal loading, and uncertain coordination environments. Here, we present the rapid crystallization and versatile metalation of new acetylhydrazone-linked COFs (AH-COFs) by condensation of ketone and hydrazide components, featuring full conversion within 30 min under open-air and mild conditions.

Antireflection (AR) coatings with mechanical robustness and superhydrophobic properties have wide potential applications in optical, electronic, and automotive fields. However, the fabrication of large-sized, robust, and multifunctional AR coatings on plastic/polymer substrates has been a challenging problem. In this study, we developed a bottom-up approach to produce mechanically robust, enhanced transmittance, and superhydrophobic coatings on poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) substrate.
