Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Metal–Organic Frameworks (MOFs)</bold> Dual functional materials with high chemical stability that not only act as a fluorescent probe for different lanthanide (Ln³⁺) ions but can also be used for detection purposes are difficult to obtain. In their Communication on <ext-link ext-link-type="doi" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">page 749 ff.</ext-link> (highlighted on the Inside Cover), Ya‐Qian Lan, Zhong‐Min Su et al. report on a microporous anionic MOF with a honeycomb shape that serves as a host for the encapsulation of Ln³⁺ ions. The MOF exhibits luminescent sensing with preference towards Eu³⁺ and Tb³⁺ ions over Sm³⁺ and Dy³⁺ ions. Moreover, it represents a potential recyclable luminescent probe for the sensitive detection of nitrobenzene through fluorescence quenching.<boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg4srq5fmp" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
