    Abstract:
    Detection and sensing of amines through enhanced fluorescence emission are always challenging in aqueous solution. The range of different Lewis basicities, shapes, and sizes as well as the different structural arrangements of amines is responsible for their less specificity in aqueous solution. Here, we have designed a highly fluorescent emissive 2D + 2D → 3D inclined polycatenated NO2-functionalized flexible metal-organic framework (MOF) for selective segregation of electron-rich aromatic primary amines from electron-deficient amines in aqueous solution, showing different emission behaviors. The inclined polycatenated 2D + 2D → 3D MOF having an asymmetric unit {[Cd(dim)(2-nta)(H2O)](H2O)(MeOH)}n (1) has been synthesized by a slow diffusion process and characterized thoroughly by single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) as well as other physicochemical methods. The desolvated species of 1 (Ref. MOF) is found to be stable and has been characterized by PXRD and adsorption study. The fluorescence profile of the Ref. MOF shows selective enhancement in the presence of electron-rich primary aromatic amines, while the same shows quenching for electron-deficient amines in aqueous solution. The Ref. MOF reported here consists of flexible space between two 2D layers that is responsible for different orientations for different analyte primary aromatic amines (PAAs) with different sizes. The above findings are also supported by time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. The respective fluorescence enhancement and quenching have been explained by the interaction between the CB of the host MOF and LUMO of guest amines. Therefore, this work presents an operable method for the sensing of PAAs using a single compound, which is a polycatenated MOF.
