Abstract

Abstract: DUT‐9/mesoporous carbon (DUT‐9/MC) nanocomposites were synthesized by in‐situ growth of nickel‐based metal‐organic frameworks (DUT‐9) on the MC for the first time. Compared with original DUT‐9 crystals, the presence of MC in the composites can avoid the agglomeration of DUT‐9 sheets, increase the specific surface area and reduce the electron transfer resistance. DUT‐9/MC shows enhanced electrocatalytic activity toward redox of baicalein compared with DTU‐9. The possible electrocatalytic redox mechanism of baicalein involves two electrons and two protons. Under the optimized conditions, the proposed sensor shows a wide linear relationship in the concentration range of 0.05‐20 μM (R 2 =0.993, sensitivity of 0.1188 μA/μM) with a low detection limit of 0.015 μM. It is worth noting that the oxidation overpotential of baicalein (0.107 V) is significantly lower than that of most literatures in pH 7.0. Meanwhile, the proposed sensor shows satisfactory results for the detection of baicalein in human serum samples. This research provides a highly efficient strategy for fabricating novel electrochemical sensor based two‐dimensional lamellar structure MOFs. Abstract :
