J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 664:946-959.

Abstract
Three-dimensional interconnected nickel-cobalt layered double hydroxides (NiCo-LDHs) were prepared on nickel foam by ion exchange using a cobalt-based metal-organic framework (Co-MOF) as a template at different temperatures. The effects of the Co-MOF preparation temperature on the growth, mass, morphology, and electrochemical properties of the Co-MOF and derived NiCo-LDH samples were studied. The synthesis temperature from 30 to 50 °C gradually increased the mass of the active material and the thickness of the Co-MOF sheets grown on the nickel foam. The higher the temperature is, the larger the proportion of Co3+. β-Cobalt hydroxide (β-Co(OH)2) sheets were generated above 60 °C. The morphology and mass loading pattern of the derived flocculent layer clusters of NiCo-LDH were inherited from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The areal capacitance of NiCo-LDH shows an inverted U-shaped curve trend with increasing temperature. The electrode material synthesized at 50 °C had a tremendous specific capacitance of 7631 mF·cm-2 at a current density of 2 mA·cm-2. The asymmetric supercapacitor assembled with the sample and active carbon (AC) achieved an energy density of 55.0 Wh·kg-1 at a power density of 800.0 W·kg-1, demonstrating the great potential of the NiCo-LDH material for energy storage. This work presents a new strategy for designing and fabricating advanced green supercapacitor materials with large power and energy densities.

Abstract
The application of electrically conductive 1D coordination polymers (1D CPs) in nanoelectronic molecular recognition is theoretically promising yet rarely explored due to the challenges in their synthesis and optimization of electrical properties. In this regard, two tetrathiafulvalene-based 1D CPs, namely [Co(m-H2TTFTB)(DMF)2(H2O)]n (Co-m-TTFTB), and {[Ni(m-H2TTFTB)(CH3CH2OH)1.5(H2O)1.5]·(H2O)0.5}n (Ni-m-TTFTB) are successfully constructed. The shorter S···S contacts between the [M(solvent)3(m-H2TTFTB)]n chains contribute to a significant improvement in their electrical conductivities. The powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) under different organic solvents reveals the flexible and dynamic structural characteristic of M-m-TTFTB, which, combined with the 1D morphology, lead to their excellent performance for sensitive detection of volatile organic compounds. Co-m-TTFTB achieves a limit of detection for ethanol vapor down to 0.5 ppm, which is superior to the state-of-the-art chemiresistive sensors based on metal-organic frameworks or organic polymers at room temperature. In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy, PXRD measurements and density functional theory calculations reveal the molecular insertion sensing mechanism and the corresponding structure-function relationship. This work expands the applicable scenario of 1D CPs and opens a new realm of 1D CP-based nanoelectronic sensors for highly sensitive room temperature gas detection.

Abstract
Luminescent chiral Tb-MOF microcrystals with the Tb2(COO)4 subunit indicated strong green mechano-luminescence under compression. Furthermore, piezofluorochromic behavior in the diamond anvil cell was observed, with the intensity tendency of decreasing-increasing-decreasing and a shortened lifetime upon compression, due to the reversible stretchable Tb-Tb interactions. The Tb-Tb distance upon compression was refined through in situ high-pressure X-ray absorption spectra, which was consistent with the tendency of the piezofluorochromic intensity. In situ high-pressure UV-vis absorption spectra, Fourier transform infrared spectra, and powder X-ray diffraction demonstrated the full recovery of Tb-MOF after over 10 GPa compressions due to the semiflexible ligand. This work not only provided an ultrastable Tb-MOF but also illustrated the relationship of the piezofluorochromic behavior with the detailed structural transformation for the first time.

Abstract
Based on the dual response of RhB@UiO-67 (1:6) to Cu2+ and Fe3+, a proportional fluorescent probe with (I392/I581) as the output signal was developed to recognize Cu2+ and Fe3+. Developing highly sensitive and selective trace metal ions probes is crucial to human health and ecological sustainability. In this work, a series of ratio fluorescent probes (RhB@UiO-67) were successfully synthesized using a one-pot method to enable fluorescence sensing of Cu2+ and Fe3+ at low concentrations. The proportional fluorescent probe RhB@UiO-67 (1:6) exhibited simultaneous quenching of Cu2+ and Fe3+, which was found to be of interest. Furthermore, the limits of detection (LODs) for Cu2+ and Fe3+ were determined to be 2.76 μM and 0.76 μM, respectively, for RhB@UiO-67 (1:6). These values were significantly superior to those reported for previous sensors, indicating the probe's effectiveness in detecting Cu2+ and Fe3+ in an ethanol medium. Additionally, RhB@UiO-67 (1:6) demonstrated exceptional immunity and reproducibility towards Cu2+ and Fe3+. The observed fluorescence quenching of Cu2+ and Fe3+ was primarily attributed to the mechanisms of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), photoinduced electron transfer (PET), and competitive absorption (CA). This work establishes a valuable foundation for the future study and utilization of Cu2+ and Fe3+ sensing technologies.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases (amyloid diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's), stemming from protein misfolding and aggregation, encompass a spectrum of disorders with severe systemic implications. Timely detection is pivotal in managing these diseases owing to their significant impact on organ function and high mortality rates. The diverse array of amyloid disorders, spanning localized and systemic manifestations, underscores the complexity of these conditions and highlights the need for advanced detection methods. Traditional approaches have focused on identifying biomarkers using imaging techniques (PET and MRI) or invasive procedures. However, recent efforts have focused on the use of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a versatile class of materials known for their unique properties, in revolutionizing amyloid disease detection. The high porosity, customizable structures, and biocompatibility of MOFs enable their integration with biomolecules, laying the groundwork for highly sensitive and specific biosensors. These sensors have been employed using electrochemical and photophysical techniques that target amyloid species under neurodegenerative conditions. The adaptability of MOFs allows for the precise detection and quantification of amyloid proteins, offering potential advancements in early diagnosis and disease management. This review article delves into how MOFs contribute to detecting amyloid diseases by categorizing their uses based on different sensing methods, such as electrochemical (EC), electrochemiluminescence (ECL), fluorescence, Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET), up-conversion luminescence resonance energy transfer (ULRET), and photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensing. The drawbacks of MOF biosensors and the challenges encountered in the field are also briefly explored from our perspective.

Abstract
Sensing of benzene vapor is a hot spot due to the volatile drastic carcinogen even at trace concentration. However, achieving convenient and rapid detection is still a challenge. As a sort of functional porous material, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been developed as detection sensors by adsorbing benzene vapor and converting it into other signals (fluorescence intensity/wavelength, chemiresistive, weight or color, etc.). Supramolecular interaction between benzene molecules and the host framework, aperture size/shape and structural flexibility are influential factors in the performance of MOF-based sensors. Therefore, enhancing the host-guest interactions between the host framework and benzene molecules, or regulating the diffusion rate of benzene molecules by changing the aperture size/shape and flexibility of the host framework to enhance the detection signal are effective strategies for constructing MOF-based sensors. This concept highlights several types of MOF-based sensors for the detection of benzene vapor.

Abstract
The understanding of electron transfer pathways and orbital interactions between analytes and adsorption sites in gas-sensitive studies, especially at the atomic level, is currently limited. Herein, we have designed eight isoreticular catechol-metalloporphyrin scaffolds, FeTCP-M and InTCP-M (TCP = 5,10,15,20-tetrakis-catechol-porphyrin, M = Fe, Co, Ni and Zn) with adjustable charge transfer schemes in the coordination microenvironment and precise tuning of orbital interactions between analytes and adsorption sites, which can be used as models for exploring the influence of these factors on gas sensing. Our experimental findings indicate that the sensitivity and selectivity can be modulated using the type of metals in the metal-catechol chains (which regulate the electron transfer routes) and the metalloporphyrin rings (which fine-tune the orbital interactions between analytes and adsorption sites). Among the isostructures, InTCP-Co demonstrates the highest response and selectivity to NO2 under visible light irradiation, which could be attributed to the more favorable transfer pathway of charge carriers in the coordination microenvironment under visible light illumination, as well as the better electron spin state compatibility, higher orbital overlap and orbital symmetry matching between the N-2s2pz hybrid orbital of NO2 and the Co-3dz2 orbital of InTCP-Co.

Abstract
The purification of oxygenated volatile organic compounds VOCs (OVOCs), important precursors of ozone and particulate matters, has triggered intensive research interests. UiO-66 with high photocatalytic activity have shown great potential. However, the lack of active sites severely limited the trapping and degradation of OVOCs. Herein, reo-UiO-66 with increased specific surface area, hierarchical porous structure and tunable acidic/basic sites was synthesized by simply adding water as the modulator. XRD, TGA and FTIR results confirmed the formation of reo-defects, which significantly affected the surface hydrophilicity and active sites of UiO-66. The adsorption of Lewis acidic acetaldehyde was enhanced by 265 times with coordinative unsaturated Zr acting as the dominant adsorption sites. The degradation efficiency of typical OVOCs (acetaldehyde and acetone) increased from 0% and 25% to 50% and 73%, respectively. This work provided a facile method to modulate the micro-environment in MOFs for the efficient capture and catalytic purification of OVOCs.

Abstract
Macrocyclic arenes show conformational adaptability, which allows host-guest complexations with the size-matched guest molecules. However, their emission properties are often poor in the solid states due to the self-absorption. Herein, we newly synthesized pillar[6]arene derivatives having alternate methylene and nitrogen bridging structures. Solvatochromic study reveals that the nitrogen-embedding into the cyclic structures can strengthen the intramolecular charge transfer (CT) nature compared to that of the linear nitrogen-bridged precursor. Owing to the large Stokes shift in the solid state, one of the nitrogen-embedded pillar[6]arenes shows high absolute photoluminescence quantum yield (ΦPL=0.36). Furthermore, it displays a turn-off sensing ability toward nitrobenzene (NB) vapor; a fluorescence quenching is observed when exposed to the NB vapor. From the structural analysis before and after the exposure of NB vapor, the amorphous nitrogen-embedded pillar[6]arene efficiently co-crystallize with NB and formed non-emissive intermolecular CT complexes with NB.

Abstract
Exploring organic semiconductor gas sensors with high sensitivity and selectivity is crucial for the development of sensor technology. Herein, for the first time, a promising chemiresistive organic polymer P-BNT based on a novel π-conjugated triarylboron building block is reported, showcasing an excellent responsivity over 30 000 (Ra/Rg) against 40 ppm of NH3, which is ≈3300 times higher than that of its B-N organic small molecule BN-H. More importantly, a molecular induction strategy to weaken the bond dissociation energy between polymer and NH3 caused by strong acid-base interaction is further executed to optimize the response and recovery time. As a result, the BN-H/P-BNT system with rapid response and recovery times can still exhibit a high responsivity of 718, which is among the highest reported NH3 chemiresistive sensors. Supported by in situ FTIR spectroscopy and theoretical calculations, it is revealed that the N-H fractions in BN-H small molecule promoted the charge distribution on phenyl groups, which increases charge delocalization and is more conducive to gas adsorption in such molecular systems. Notably, these distinctive small molecules also promoted charge transfer and enhanced electron concentration of the P-BNT sensing polymer, thus achieving superior B-N-containing organic molecules with excellent sensing performance.

Abstract
Utilizing electromagnetic hotspots within plasmonic nanogaps is a promising approach to create ultrasensitive surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates. However, it is difficult for many molecules to get positioned in such nanogaps. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are commonly used to absorb and concentrate diverse molecules. Herein, we combine these two strategies by introducing MOFs into plasmon-coupled nanogaps, which has so far remained experimentally challenging. Ultrasensitive SERS substrates are fabricated through the construction of nanoparticle-on-mirror structures, where Au nanocrystals are encapsulated with a zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) shell and then coupled to a gold film. The ZIF-8 shell, as a spacer that separates the Au nanocrystal and the Au film, can be adjusted in thickness over a wide range, which allows the electric field enhancement and plasmon resonance wavelength to be varied. By trapping Raman-active molecules within the ZIF-8 shell, we show that our plasmon-coupled structures exhibit a superior SERS detection performance. A range of volatile organic compounds at the concentrations of 10-2 mg m-3 can be detected sensitively and reliably. Our study therefore offers an attractive route for synergistically combining plasmonic electric field enhancement and MOF-enabled molecular enrichment to design and create SERS substrates for ultrasensitive detection.

Abstract
The commercialization of lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries has been hindered by the shuttle effect and sluggish redox kinetics of lithium polysulfides (LiPSs). Herein, we reported a viologen-based ionic conjugated mesoporous polymer (TpV-Cl), which acts as the cathode host for modifying Li-S batteries. The viologen component serves as a reversible electron conveyer, leading to a comprehensive enhancement in the adsorption of polysulfides and improved conversion rate of polysulfides during the electrochemical process. As a result, the S@TpV-PS cathode exhibits outstanding cycling performance, achieving 300 cycles at 2.0 C (1 C = 1675 mA g-1) with low decay rate of 0.032% per cycle. Even at a high sulfur loading of 4.0 mg cm-2, S@TpV-PS shows excellent cycling stability with a Coulombic efficiency of up to 98%. These results highlight the significant potential of S@TpV-PS in developing high-performance Li-S batteries.

Abstract
Wearable sensors hold immense potential for real-time and non-destructive sensing of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), requiring both efficient sensing performance and robust mechanical properties. However, conventional colorimetric sensor arrays, acting as artificial olfactory systems for highly selective VOC profiling, often fail to meet these requirements simultaneously. Here, a high-performance wearable sensor array for VOC visual detection is proposed by extrusion printing of hybrid inks containing surface-functionalized sensing materials. Surface-modified hydrophobic polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) improves the humidity resistance and VOC sensitivity of PDMS-coated dye/metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) composites. It also enhances their dispersion within liquid PDMS matrix, thereby promoting the hybrid liquid as high-quality extrusion-printing inks. The inks enable direct and precise printing on diverse substrates, forming a uniform and high particle-loading (70 wt%) film. The printed film on a flexible PDMS substrate demonstrates satisfactory flexibility and stretchability while retaining excellent sensing performance from dye/MOFs@PDMS particles. Further, the printed sensor array exhibits enhanced sensitivity to sub-ppm VOC levels, remarkable resistance to high relative humidity (RH) of 90%, and the differentiation ability for eight distinct VOCs. Finally, the wearable sensor proves practical by in situ monitoring of wheat scab-related VOC biomarkers. This study presents a versatile strategy for designing effective wearable gas sensors with widespread applications.

Abstract
Since exhaled ammonia (NH3) is one of the metabolic markers of liver and kidney diseases, ammonia visual sensing materials in humid environments have received extensive attention and investigation. Herein, through a tailor-made pore environment provided by metal-organic framework (MOF) materials (CH3-Cu(BDC)), we achieved NH3 anti-interference sensing with apparent color changing under humid conditions. With methyl (CH3-) functionalization, CH3-Cu(BDC) demonstrated a strong response for trace ammonia and showed high selectivity under a humid environment. Grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations indicated that CH3-Cu(BDC) showed stronger attraction towards NH3 molecules than H2O. Benefiting from the target changing coordination environment, CH3-Cu(BDC) showed a rapid response and simple analysis properties for patients' exhaled air. The strategy used in this study not only provides a demonstration case for NH3 colorimetric sensing with high humidity and anti-interference but also introduces a new method for painless and quick exhaled breath analysis for diagnosis of patients with kidney and liver diseases.

Abstract
Developing high-performance chemiresistive gas sensors with mechanical compliance for environmental or health-related biomarker monitoring has recently drawn increasing research attention. Among them, two-dimensional MXene materials hold great potential for room-temperature hazardous gas (e.g., NH3) monitoring regardless of the complicated fabrication process, insufficient 2D/3D flexibilities, and poor environmental sustainability. Herein, a Ti3C2Tx MXene/gelatin ink was developed for patterning electrodes through a facile spray coating. Particularly, the patterned Ti3C2Tx-based coating exhibited good adhesion on the paper substrate against repeated peeling-off and excellent mechanical flexibility against 1000 cyclic stretching. The porous morphology of the coating facilitated the NH3 sensing ability. As a result, the 2D kirigami-shaped NH3 sensor exhibited a good response of 7% to 50 ppm of NH3 with detectable concentrations ranging from 5-500 ppm, decent selectivity over interferences, etc., which could be well-maintained even at 50% stretched state. In addition, with the help of mechanically guided compressive buckling, 3D mesostructured MXene origamis could be obtained, holding promise for detecting the coming direction and height distribution of hazardous gas, e.g., the NH3. More importantly, the as-fabricated MXene/gelatin origami paper could be fully degraded in PBS/H2O2/cellulase solution within 19 days, demonstrating its potential as a high-performance, shape morphable, and environmentally friendly wearable gas sensor.

Abstract
The construction and investigation of dual-functional coordination polymers (CPs) with proton conduction and luminescence sensing is of great significance in clean energy and agricultural monitoring fields. In this work, an Mn-based coordination polymer (Mn-CP), namely, [Mn0.5(HL)] (H2L = HOOCC6H4C6H4CH2PO(OH)OCH3), was hydrothermally synthesized. Mn-CP has a one-dimensional (1D) chain structure, in which uncoordinated -COOH groups can serve as potential sites for fluorescence sensing. Moreover, Mn-CP shows good water and pH stabilities, offering the feasibility for proton conduction and sensing applications. Mn-CP displays comparatively high proton conductivity of 1.07 × 10-4 S cm-1 at 368 K and 95% relative humidity (RH), which is promising for proton conduction materials. Moreover, it can serve as a repeatable, highly selective, and visualized fluorescence sensor for detecting oxytetracycline (OTC). More importantly, Mn-CP reveals an amazing quantitative sensing of OTC in actual samples such as seawater, aquaculture freshwater, soil infiltration solutions, and tap water. This work proves the excellent application potential of dual-functional CPs in the field of clean energy and environmental protection, especially for the fluorescence detection of antibiotics in aquaculture systems.

Abstract
The monomeric and dimeric uranium azide complexes {[(CH3)2NCH2CH2NPiPr2]2U(N3)2} (2) and {[(CH3)2NCH2CH2NPiPr2]2U(N3)2}2 (3) were synthesized by treating complex 1 with NaN3 at 60 and -20 °C, respectively. A temperature-induced single-crystal to single-crystal transformation of 3 to 2 was observed. The reduction of either 2 or 3 with KC8 yields a uranium nitride complex {[(CH3)2NCH2CH2NPiPr2]4U2(μ-N)2} (4).

Abstract
Chemiresistive gas sensors (CGSs) have revolutionized the field of gas sensing by providing a low-power, low-cost, and highly sensitive means of detecting harmful gases. This technology works by measuring changes in the conductivity of materials when they interact with a testing gas. While semiconducting metal oxides and two-dimensional (2D) materials have been used for CGSs, they suffer from poor selectivity to specific analytes in the presence of interfering gases and require high operating temperatures, resulting in high signal-to-noise ratios. However, nanoporous materials have emerged as a promising alternative for CGSs due to their high specific surface area, unsaturated metal actives, and density of three-dimensional inter-connected conductive and pendant functional groups. Porous materials have demonstrated excellent response and recovery times, remarkable selectivity, and the ability to detect gases at extremely low concentrations. Herein, our central emphasis is on all aspects of CGSs, with a primary focus on the use of porous materials. Further, we discuss the basic sensing mechanisms and parameters, different types of popular sensing materials, and the critical explanations of various mechanisms involved throughout the sensing process. We have provided examples of remarkable performance demonstrated by sensors using these materials. In addition to this, we compare the performance of porous materials with traditional metal-oxide semiconductors (MOSs) and 2D materials. Finally, we discussed future aspects, shortcomings, and scope for improvement in sensing performance, including the use of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent-organic frameworks (COFs), and porous organic polymers (POPs), as well as their hybrid counterparts. Overall, CGSs using porous materials have the potential to address a wide range of applications, including monitoring water quality, detecting harmful chemicals, improving surveillance, preventing natural disasters, and improving healthcare.

Abstract
Gas sensors are crucial in environmental monitoring, industrial safety, and medical diagnostics. Due to the rising demand for precise and reliable gas detection, there is a rising demand for cutting-edge gas sensors that possess exceptional sensitivity, selectivity, and stability. Due to their tunable electrical properties, high-density surface-active sites, and significant surface-to-volume ratio, nanomaterials have been extensively investigated in this regard. The traditional gas sensors utilize homogeneous material for sensing where the adsorbed surface oxygen species play a vital role in their sensing activity. However, their performance for selective gas sensing is still unsatisfactory because the employed high temperature leads to the poor stability. The heterostructures nanomaterials can easily tune sensing performance and their different energy band structures, work functions, charge carrier concentration and polarity, and interfacial band alignments can be precisely designed for high-performance selective gas sensing at low temperature. In this review article, we discuss in detail the fundamentals of semiconductor gas sensing along with their mechanisms. Further, we highlight the existed challenges in semiconductor gas sensing. In addition, we review the recent advancements in semiconductor gas sensor design for applications from different perspective. Finally, the conclusion and future perspectives for improvement of the gas sensing performance are discussed.

Abstract
Thiols are essential functional groups imparting unique properties, such as reactivity and selectivity, to many vital enzymes and biomolecules. The integration of electronically soft thiol groups within metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) yields elevated reactivity and a pronounced affinity for soft metal ions. However, the scarcity of thiol-based ligands and synthetic challenges hinder the advancement of thiol-based MOFs. To bypass the difficulties of synthesizing thiol MOFs by a direct reaction between thiol-based ligands and corresponding metal salts, postsynthetic modification (PSM) of MOFs is an efficient strategy to introduce thiol functionality. Herein, we have introduced Ag nanoparticles in postsynthetically modified thiol MOFs UiO-66-NH-SH (1) (synthesized by reaction between UiO-66-NH2 and thioglycolic acid) and UiO-66-NH-SH (2) (synthesized by reaction between UiO-66-NH2 and 3-mercaptopropionic acid) to synthesize a series of heterogeneous catalysts for CO2 fixation. Catalysts Cat 1-2 and Cat 3 - 4 were synthesized from UiO-66-NH-SH (1) and UiO-66-NH-SH (2), respectively, by using varying concentrations of silver (AgNO3). Catalyst Ag@UiO-66-NH-SH (1) (Ag = 3.45%; namely Cat 2) shows the highest efficiency for the catalytic conversion of propargylic alcohol and terminal epoxide to the corresponding cyclic carbonates. Finally, a rationalized reaction mechanism is proposed by correlating our results with the current literature. This work presents a viable strategy to utilize the thiol functionality of MOFs (avoiding the complexities associated with synthesizing thiol MOFs directly from thiol ligands) as a platform for introducing catalytically active metal centers and applying them as a heterogeneous catalyst for CO2 fixation reactions.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with multifunctional and tunable optical properties have unique advantages in the field of sensing, and the structure and properties of MOFs are significantly influenced by the ligands. In this study, a Y-type tricarboxylic acid ligand containing amide bonds was synthesized through functional guidance, and three isomorphic and heterogeneous three-dimensional MOFs (Eu-MOF, Tb-MOF, and Gd-MOF) were obtained by solvothermal reaction. Further studies revealed that both the Tb-MOF and Eu-MOF could selectively detect picric acid (PA). The luminescence quenching of the two MOFs by PA was attributed to competing absorption and photoelectron energy transfer mechanisms. In addition, due to the energy transfer between Tb and Rhodamine B, Rhodamine B was encapsulated into Tb-MOF. The obtained material exhibited a linear relationship between the temperature parameters I544/I584 and temperature within the range of 280-400 K, the correlation coefficient (R2) reached an impressive value of 0.999, and the absolute sensitivity of the sample used for temperature sensing was 1.534% K-1. What is more, the material exhibited a good response to trifluoroacetic acid vapor, which suggests the potential of the material for temperature sensing and detection of trifluoroacetic acid vapor. The designed and investigated strategy can also serve as a reference for further research on excellent multifunctional sensors.

Abstract
Gas sensing technology has a broad impact on society, ranging from environmental and industrial safety to healthcare and everyday applications, contributing to a safer, healthier, and more sustainable world. We studied pure and Fe-decorated hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) gas sensor for monitoring of carbon-based gases using density functional theory (DFT). The calculations utilized the Generalized Gradient Approximation with the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (GGA-PBE) exchange-correlation functional. The novelty of our study lies in the investigation of the adsorption of harmful gases such as carbonyl sulfide, carbinol, carbimide, and carbonyl fluoride on both pure and Fe-decorated h-BN. The deviation in structural, electronic, and adsorption properties of h-BN due to Fe decoration has been studied along with the sensing ability to design said material towards carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), carbonyl sulfide (COS), carbinol, (CH4O), carbimide (CH2N2), and carbonyl fluoride (CF2O) gases. Gases such as CO, COS, CH2N2, and CF2O exhibited chemisorption, while CO2, and CH4O exhibited physisorption behavior. The introduction of Fe altered the semiconductor properties of h-BN and rendered it metallic. Enhanced electronic properties were observed due to a robust hybridization occurring between the d-orbitals of Fe-decorated BN and the gas molecules. The extended recovery periods observed for gases, aside from CO2, indicate their adhesive interactions with Fe-decorated h-BN. The reduction in desorption duration as temperature rises allows Fe-decorated h-BN to function as a reversible gas sensor. This research opens up a novel pathway for the synthesis and advancement of cost-effective, environmentally friendly double-atom catalysts with high sensitivity for capturing and detecting molecules such as CO, COS, CH2N2, CO2, CH4O, and CF2O.

Abstract
Clenbuterol (CLB) as an illegal feed additive may cause a great security risk to food safety. However, convenient and efficient detection means for CLB in practical application remain a formidable challenge. Herein, a stable Eu-based organic framework {[H2N(CH3)2]2[Eu2(ttca)2]·H2O}n (compound 1) (H4ttca = [1,1':2',1″-terphenyl]-4,4',4″,5'-tetracarboxylic acid) has been harvested, exhibiting excellent chemical stability and thermal stability. Luminescence investigation reveals that compound 1 can sensitively and selectively detect CLB without being affected by different components from simulated serum and urine (limit detection: 22.7 nM). Furthermore, sensor 1 can also be applicable to CLB recognition in real swine feeds, presenting excellent anti-interference performance. The good cyclicity of compound 1 endows CLB determination with many advantages: low cost, high stability, and simplicity. Importantly, in view of the indication of the luminescence color (red to blue), test membranes were fabricated and employed for convenient and fast CLB detection, providing a valuable scheme for the visual monitoring of CLB in meat products. This work enriches rare earth metal compounds and luminescence sensor portfolios and breaks the concentration record (nM) for detecting CLB compared with reported complex materials, providing an effective monitoring platform for CLB visually.

Abstract
The rapid and accurate sensing of p-xylene, an essential raw material with a multi-billion-dollar market, in xylene mixture is of great significance in industry; however, the highly similar molecular structures, energy levels, and spectral characteristics of xylene isomers make the selective recognition extremely challenging. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) exhibiting tailorable pores and potential binding sites provide prospects for xylene sensing but a comprehensive understanding of the pore effect is still elusive, primarily due to the intricacies involved in the sensing process. Herein, we reported a robust bilanthanide MOF NKU-999-EuTb with precisely engineered pores to accommodate p-xylene, of which the binding sites were confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction and dynamic magnetic susceptibilities. NKU-999-EuTb exhibits high-performance in selective recognition for p-xylene towards its isomers. Through a systematical study, it was revealed that absorbing p-xylene into the pores governs the sensing performance. This work provides insights for developing advanced sensing materials for complex isomers.

Abstract
Stable viologen-derived multifunctional smart materials exhibit widespread practical applications in many areas. In this study, a viologen-derived material with 4-fold interpenetrating diamondoid network, {[Cd(1,4-ndc)(cpbpy)]·2H2O}n, was successfully constructed based on asymmetrical N-(3-carboxyphenyl)-4,4'-bipyridinium (cpbpy) and 1,4-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid (1,4-H2ndc). The compound shows reversible photochromic behavior under a xenon lamp, which are proved by UV-vis spectra and EPR characterizations. Moreover, the compound with good photoluminescence properties displays photocontrolled luminescence quenching behaviors. Owing to its good water stability, the compound is then applied in luminescence sensing for the detection of Cr2O72- in aqueous solution. The corresponding luminescence quenching constant for Cr2O72- is KSV = 4.33 × 104 M-1, and the detection limit is 3.66 μM. Systematic investigations on the luminescence quenching mechanism suggest that the inner filter effect resulted in the selective detection of Cr2O72-. This study provides inspiration for the design and synthesis of target luminescent crystalline materials with rigid and asymmetric viologen-derived ligands.

Abstract
The increasing health risks posed by per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in the environment highlight the importance of implementing effective removal techniques. Conventional wastewater treatment processes are inadequate for removing persistent organic pollutants. Recent studies have increasingly demonstrated that metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are capable of removing PFASs from water through adsorption techniques. However, there is still constructive discussion on the potential of MOFs in adsorbing and removing PFASs for large-scale engineering applications. This review systematically investigates the use of MOFs as adsorbents for the removal of PFAS in water treatment. This primarily involved a comprehensive analysis of existing literature to understand the adsorption mechanisms of MOFs and to identify factors that enhance their efficiency in removing PFASs. We also explore the critical aspects of regeneration and stability of MOFs, assessing their reusability and long-term performance, which are essential for large-scale water treatment applications. Finally, our study highlights the challenges of removing PFASs using MOFs. Especially, the efficient removal of short-chain PFASs with hydrophilicity is a major challenge, while medium- to long-chain PFASs are frequently susceptible to being captured from water by MOFs through multiple synergistic effects. The ion-exchange force may be the key to solving this difficulty, but its susceptibility to ion interference in water needs to be addressed in practical applications. We hope that this review can provide valuable insights into the effective removal and adsorption mechanisms of PFASs as well as advance the sustainable utilization of MOFs in the field of water treatment, thereby presenting a novel perspective.

Abstract
Cross-responsive chemical sensors are in high demand owing to their ability to distinguish a broad range of analytes. In this study, a vapochromic sensor array based on metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), which exhibits distinct patterns when exposed to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and humidity, is developed. Conventional sensor arrays consist of various receptors that produce different responses. The vapochromic MOF-based sensor comprises dicopper paddlewheel clusters and dimethylamine azobenzene as binary colorimetric sensing moieties. Upon exposure to VOCs, the constructed sensor encompasses a broad spectrum of colors, ranging from green to red. Furthermore, the color of the MOF is influenced by the solvent used during the pretreatment. Consequently, monolayered MOF thin films can be adapted to multicomponent array systems by immersing the MOF in different solvents. This system provides both qualitative and quantitative sensing, generating unique color patterns corresponding to specific VOC types. Notably, the sensor successfully discriminates each of 14 common VOCs and water and accurately categorizes unknown samples. Moreover, the system undergoes reversible color changes in response to humidity, obviating the need for high-temperature regeneration steps. This novel approach offers insights into the versatile applications of MOFs by creating a colorimetric sensor array capable of detecting various analytes.

Abstract
We present the fabrication of a novel Starfruit-shaped metal-organic framework (SMOF) composed of zirconium and Tetra(4-carboxyphenyl)porphine linkers. The SMOF exhibits a unique morphology with edge-sharing two-dimensional (2D) nanosheet petals. Our investigation unravels a captivating transformation process, wherein three-dimensional (3D) shuttle-shaped MOFs form initially and subsequently evolve into 2D nanosheet-based SMOF structures. The distinct morphology of SMOF showcases superior catalytic activity in detoxifying G-type nerve agent and blister agent simulants, surpassing that of its 3D counterparts. This discovery of the 3D-to-2D transition growth pathway unlocks exciting opportunities for exploring novel strategies in advanced MOF nanostructure development, not only for catalysis but also for various other applications.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising materials offering exceptional performance across a myriad of applications, attributable to their remarkable physicochemical properties such as regular porosity, crystalline structure, and tailored functional groups. Despite their potential, there is a lack of dedicated reviews that focus on key physicochemical characterizations of MOFs for the beginners and new researchers in the field. This review is written based on our expertise in the synthesis and characterization of MOFs, specifically to provide a right direction for the researcher who is a beginner in this area. In this way, experimental errors can be reduced, and wastage of time and chemicals can be avoided when new researchers conduct a study. In this article, this topic is critically analyzed, and findings and conclusions are presented. We reviewed three well-known XRD techniques, including PXRD, single crystal XRD, and SAXS, which were used for XRD analysis depending on the crystal size and the quality of crystal morphology. The TGA profile was an effective factor for evaluating the quality of the activation process and for ensuring the successful investigation for other characterizations. The BET and pore size were significantly affected by the activation process and selective benzene chain cross-linkers. FTIR is a prominent method that is used to investigate the functional groups on pore surfaces, and this method is successfully used to evaluate the activation process, characterize functionalized MOFs, and estimate their applications. The most significant methods of characterization include the X-ray diffraction, which is utilized for structural identification, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), which is used for exploring thermal decomposition. It is important to note that the thermal stability of MOFs is influenced by two main factors: the metal-ligand interaction and the type of functional groups attached to the organic ligand. The textural properties of the MOFs, on the other hand, can be scrutinized through nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms experiments at 77 K. However, for smaller pore size, the Argon adsorption-desorption isotherm at 87.3 K is preferred. Furthermore, the CO2 adsorption isotherm at 273 K can be used to measure ultra-micropore sizes and sizes lower than these, which cannot be measured by using the N2 adsorption-desorption isotherm at 77 K. The highest BET was observed in high-valence MOFs that are constructed based on the metal-oxo cluster, which has an excellent ability to control their textural properties. It was found that the synthesis procedure (including the choice of solvent, cross-linker, secondary metal, surface functional groups, and temperature), activation method, and pressure significantly impact the surface area of the MOF and, by extension, its structural integrity. Additionally, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy plays a crucial role in identifying active MOF functional groups. Understanding these physicochemical properties and utilizing relevant characterization techniques will enable more precise MOF selection for specific applications.

Abstract
Monitoring the levels of uric acid (UA) in body fluids is of great significance in the clinical diagnosis and therapy of related diseases. Herein, a novel nanocomposite R6G@Fe-MOF based nonenzymatic probe is presented to provide a ratiometric fluorescent, colorimetric, and photothermal triple read-out signal for the visual, sensitive, and convenient assay of UA. The framework structure of the in situ encapsulated R6G@Fe-MOF is found to decompose upon the addition of UA, resulting in the reduction of Fe3+ to Fe2+. This reduction will lead to a rapid increase in fluorescence emission (FL) at 430 nm. Simultaneously, the FL at 573 nm will decrease remarkably due to the inner filter effect (IFE) between UA and R6G@Fe-MOF. Furthermore, the reaction of the generated Fe2+ with potassium ferricyanide (K3 [Fe(CN)6]) can in situ generate Prussian blue (PBNPs) with outstanding color and photothermal properties, which allow for easy colorimetric and photothermal signal readout. The detection limits (LOD) for the colorimetric, fluorometric and photothermal detection are low at 1.68 μM, 0.236 μM, and 1.32 μM respectively. Ultimately, it is successfully employed to determine UA in urine, serum, and saliva, yielding satisfactory results. The constructed R6G@Fe-MOF sensor provides a simple, sensitive, and accurate determination of UA that can be tailored to meet the needs of various applications, and also provides new perspectives for the design and development of versatile sensors for diverse uses.

Abstract
Multifunctionality in spin-crossover (SCO) devices is limited to macroscopic or nanoscopic materials because of the need for long-range effects for inducing favorable cooperativity, efficient energy migration processes, and detectable magnetization transfer. The difficult reproducibility, control, and rational design of doped materials offer some place to SCO processes, modulating the optical properties of neighboring luminescent probes in single molecules. We report here on the combination of a [FeN6] chromophore, the SCO temperature and absorption spectra of which have been tuned to induce unprecedented room-temperature modulation of Eu(III)-based line-like luminescence in the molecular triple-helical [EuFe(L2)3]5+ complex in solution.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a novel class of hybrid porous multi-functional materials consisting of metal ions/clusters and organic ligands. MOFs have exclusive benefits due to their tunable structure and diverse properties. Luminescent MOFs (LMOFs) exhibit both porosity and light emission. They display abundant host and guest responses, making them conducive to sensing. Currently, LMOF sensing research is gaining more depth, with attention given to their device and practical applications. This work reviews recent advancements and device applications of LMOFs as chemical sensors toward ions, volatile organic compounds, biomolecules, and environmental toxins. Furthermore, the detection mechanism and the correlation between material properties and structure are elaborated. This analysis serves as a valuable reference for the preparation and efficient application of targeted LMOFs.

Abstract
Two {Cu2I2} cluster-bearing metal organic frameworks (MOFs) of {[Eu(CuI)2(INA)3DMF]·0.95DMF}n (Eu-CuI-INA) and {K[(CH3)2NH2]Sr4(INA)2(DMF)2{(Cu2I2)2(INA)8}·2H2O}n (Sr-K-CuI-INA, HINA = isonicotinic acid, DMF = N,N-dimethyl formamide) were prepared and characterized in this work. Both materials feature a three-dimensional (3-D) structure, in which the {Cu2I2} clusters and Eu3+ (or Sr2+) metal ions are coordinated by INA- ligands with pyridine and carboxylic groups, respectively. Impressively, Sr-K-CuI-INA exhibits sensitive fluorescence sensing behaviors towards cysteine and nitro-bearing molecules, demonstrating potential FL sensing applications for bio and explosive molecules. This work would provide a good reference for designing fluorescent MOF probes containing CuI molecules.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death for women worldwide. Raloxifene (RLX) is a somewhat effective drug in lowering cholesterol, preventing and treating invasive breast cancer in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis, and does not interfere with breast tissue. Nevertheless, considering the possibility of risk in biological function due to excessive use of anticancer drugs and the adverse effects of drugs in wastewater on plants, animals, and aquatic, it is useful to determine the concentration of RLX in water and human body fluids. Here, a fluorescent metal-organic framework (MOF) nanoparticle based on trinuclear zinc clusters called Zn-MOF was presented, which is a high-performance and fast-response fluorescent chemosensor that can be used to detect RLX based on the fluorescence quenching medium in water. FTIR, XRD, SEM, and EDS analyses were used to identify the functional group and determine the structure and morphology of Zn-MOF. pH range 3-10. The prepared nanoparticles showed symmetric emission with excitation at a wavelength of 310.0 nm. The performance of the proposed fluorescent nanosensor was proportional to the quenching of the fluorescent signal with increasing RLX concentration at 404.0 nm; the quenching fluorescence response was linear in RLX concentration from 0.7 to 350 ng/mL with a significant detection limit equal to 0.485 nM.

Abstract
Metal oxide semiconductors (MOSs) hold great promise for electronic devices such as gas sensors. The utilization of ZnO as a conductometric gas sensor material can be traced back to its early stages; however, its application has primarily been limited to high-temperature environments. A gas sensor based on highly porous and interconnected 3D networks of ZnO tetrapod (ZnO-T) micro-nano structures was fabricated via an easy chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. Homemade instruments were utilized to evaluate the gas-sensing of the sample at room temperature. It exhibited good gas-sensing at room temperature, particularly with a response of up to 338.80% toward 1600 ppm ethanol, while also demonstrating remarkable repeatability, stability, and selectivity. Moreover, the unique gas-sensing properties of ZnO-T at room temperature can be reasonably explained by considering the effect of van der Waals forces in physical adsorption and the synergistic effect of carrier concentration and mobility. The aforementioned statement presents an opportunity for the advancement of gas sensors utilizing ZnO at room temperature.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important biomacromolecules used as biomarkers for the diagnosis of several diseases. However, current detection strategies are limited by expensive equipment and complicated procedures. Here, we develop a portable, sensitive, and stable (Eu-MOF)-based sensing platform to detect miRNA via smartphone. The Eu-MOF absorbs the carboxyfluorescein (FAM)-tagged probe DNA (pDNA) to generate hybrid pDNA@Eu-MOF, which can efficiently quench the fluorescence of FAM through a photoinduced electron transfer (PET) process. When integrated with a smartphone, the nonemissive pDNA@ Eu-MOF hybrid could be utilized as a portable and sensitive platform to sense miRNA (miR-892b) with a detection limit of 0.32 pM, which could be even distinguished by the naked eye. Moreover, this system demonstrates high selectivity for identifying miRNA family members with single-base mismatches. Furthermore, the expression levels of miRNA in cancer cell samples could be analyzed accurately. Therefore, the proposed method offers a promising guideline for the design of MOF-based sensing strategies and expands their potential applications for diagnostic purposes.

Abstract
In this study, for the first time, boron oxide nanoflake is analyzed as drug carrier for favipiravir using computational studies. The thermodynamic stability of the boron oxide and favipiravir justifies the strong interaction between both species. Four orientations are investigated for the interaction between the favipiravir and the B3O3 nanoflake. The Eint of the most stable orientation is -26.98 kcal/mol, whereas the counterpoise-corrected energy is -22.59 kcal/mol. Noncovalent interaction index (NCI) and quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) analyses are performed to obtain insights about the behavior and the types of interactions that occur between B3O3 nanoflake and favipiravir. The results indicate the presence of hydrogen bonding between the hydrogen in the favipiravir and the oxygen in the B3O3 nanoflake in the most stable complex (FAV@B3O3-C1). The electronic properties are investigated through frontier molecular orbital analysis, dipole moments and chemical reactivity descriptors. These parameters showed the significant activity of B3O3 for favipiravir. NBO charge analysis transfer illustrated the charge transfer between the two species, and UV-VIS analysis confirmed the electronic excitation. Our work suggested a suitable drug carrier system for the antiviral drug favipiravir, which can be considered by the experimentalist for better drug delivery systems.

Abstract
In the past decades, porous coordination polymers (PCPs) based fluorescent (FL) sensors have received intense attention due to their promising applications. In this work, a soluble Zn-PCP is presented as a sensitive probe towards explosive molecules, chromate, and dichromate ions. In former reports, PCP sensors were usually ground into fine powders and then dispersed in solvents to form FL emulsion for sensing applications. However, their insoluble characters would cause the sensing accuracy which is prone to interference from environmental effects. While in this work, the as-made PCP could be directly soluble in organic solvents to form a clear solution with bright blue emission, representing the first soluble PCP based fluorescence sensor to probe explosive molecules under a homogeneous environment. Moreover, the FL PCP solution also shows sensitive detection behaviors towards the toxic anions of CrO42- and Cr2O72-, which exhibit a good linear relationship between the fluorescence intensity of Zn-PCP and the concentrations of both analytes. This work provides a reference for designing task-specific PCP sensors utilized under a homogeneous environment.

Abstract
Porous magnets that undergo a magnetic phase transition in response to gaseous adsorbates are desirable for the development of sustainable sensing and memory devices. Familiar gases such as O2 and CO2 are one class of target adsorbates because of their close association with life sciences and environmental issues; however, it is not easy to develop magnetic devices that respond to these ubiquitous gases. To date, only three examples of gas-responsive magnetic phase transitions have been demonstrated: (i) from a ferrimagnet to an antiferromagnet, (ii) its vice versa (i.e., change of magnetic phase), and (iii) from a ferrimagnet to a paramagnet (i.e., erasure of the magnetic phase). However, the creation of a magnet, meaning the change from a nonmagnet to a magnet by O2 or CO2 gas adsorption and magnetic switching by this phenomenon have not yet been explored. Herein, we report a CO2-induced antiferromagnet modified from a paramagnetic charge-flexible layered compound, [{Ru2(2,4-F2PhCO2)4}2TCNQ(OEt)2] (1; 2,4-F2PhCO2- = 2,4-difluorobenzoate; TCNQ(OEt)2 = 2,5-diethoxy-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane), where three molar equivalents of CO2 was accommodated at a CO2 pressure of 100 kPa. The magnetic change originates from charge fluctuation due to the transfer of electrons moving from the electron-donor to the electron-acceptor unit or vice versa, resulting in a change in the electron distribution induced by CO2 adsorption/desorption in the donor-acceptor-type charge transfer framework. Owing to the reversible electronic state change upon CO2 adsorption/desorption, these magnetic phases are switched, accompanied by modification of the electrical conductivity, which is boosted by the CO2 accommodation. This is the first example of the creation of a CO2-responsive magnet, which is promising for novel molecular multifunctional devices.

Abstract
5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) is an important product of the Maillard reaction and can be used as a quality indicator of food. 5-HMF has been found in studies to be harmful to human health. In this study, a highly selective and anti-interference fluorescent sensor Eu@1 is constructed based on Eu3+-functionalized Hf-based MOF for monitoring 5-HMF in a variety of food products. Eu@1 shows high selectivity, low LOD (8.46 μM), fast response time, and repeatability for 5-HMF. More importantly, after adding 5-HMF to milk, honey and apple juice samples, the probe Eu@1 is proved to be successfully in sensing 5-HMF in the above food samples. Therefore, this study provides a dependable and efficient alternative for the detection of 5-HMF in food samples.

Abstract
Herein, we designed/developed a mixed fluorescence system with europium metal-organic framework (EDB) and zinc metal-organic framework (ZBNB). At the 270-nm excitation wavelength, the EDB-ZBNB dually emitted at 425 and 615 nm and displayed blue solution under 365-nm UV lamp. When HOCl was fortified, the 425-nm blue emission dropped progressively, while the 615-nm red emission was relatively stable. Upon addition of ClO-, the shortened fluorescence lifetime demonstrated that the quenched 425-nm fluorescence of ZBNB was owing to the occurrence of dynamic quenching effect. Besides, amino groups are protonated in water to form -NH3+, which interact with ClO- to form hydrogen bonds, reduce the distance between -NH3+ and ClO-, produce energy transfer and result in fluorescence quenching. The ratiometric fluoroprobe provided a significant color change from blue to red, making HOCl detection visual and rapid. This fluorescent probe overcome the disadvantage of conventional redox-based fluorescent probes that can be interfered by MnO4- and other oxidants with stronger oxidizing capacity than free ClO-. Furthermore, a smartphone-based portable sensing platform was developed based on EDB-ZBNB. By using a "Thingidentify" software on smartphone, the sensing platform was used to detect HOCl in waters with a low detection limit of 28.0 nM and the fortified recoveries of 98.87-103.60%. Thus, this study provides a novel and promising platform for the detection of free ClO- in monitoring water quality.

Abstract
A pyrene-based metal-organic framework, Cd2(PTTB)(H2O)2 (WYU-11), was synthesized from the tetracarboxylic pyrene ligand H4PTTB (H4PTTB = 1,3,6,8-tetrakis(3-carboxyphenyl)pyrene) and Cd(NO3)2·4H2O. Powder X-ray diffraction analysis discloses that the framework is stable in acid, base, and various organic solvent environments. WYU-11 shows excellent catalytic performance on the cyclization reaction of propargylic amines with CO2 into 2-oxazolidinones under mild conditions (60 °C, atmospheric CO2). 1H NMR studies unveiled that WYU-11 and 1,1,3,3-tetramethylguanidine (TMG) can synergistically activate the propargylic amine substrate and promote the reaction. Importantly, WYU-11 represents a rare example of noble metal-free heterogeneous catalyst that can catalyze the cyclization of CO2 with propargylic amines. In addition, by virtue of the excellent water stability and luminescence properties, WYU-11 shows excellent detection performance for sulfathiazole (STZ) and ornidazole (ODZ) in water. Investigation reveals that the coexistence of photoinduced electron transfer and internal filtering effect could reasonably explain the luminescence quenching of WYU-11 by the antibiotics.

Abstract
The development of fast-response sensors for detecting NH3 at room temperature remains a formidable challenge. Here, to address this challenge, two highly robust Hoffmann-type metal-organic frameworks are rationally applied as the NH3 sensing materials which possess ultra-high static adsorption capacity for NH3, only lower than the current benchmark material. The adsorption mechanism is in-depth unveiled by dynamic adsorption and simulation studies. The assembled interdigital electrode device exhibits low detection limit (25 ppb) and short response time (5 s) at room temperature, which set a record among all electrical signal sensors. Moreover, the sensor exhibits excellent selectivity towards NH3 in the presence of 13 other potential interfering gases. Prominently, the sensor can stably output signals for more than two months at room temperature and can be recovered by simply purging nitrogen at room temperature without heating. This study opens up a way for reasonably designing gas sensing materials for toxic gases.

Abstract
The electronic structure of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) containing transition metal (TM) ions represents a significant and largely unresolved computational challenge due to limited solutions to the quantitative description of low-energy excitations in open d-shells. These excitations underpin the magnetic and sensing properties of TM MOFs, including the observed remarkable spin-crossover phenomenon. We introduce the effective Hamiltonian of crystal field approach to study the d-d spectrum of MOFs containing TM ions; this is a hybrid QM/QM method based on the separation of crystal structure into d- and s,p-subsystems treated at different levels of theory. We test the method on model frameworks, carbodiimides, and hydrocyanamides and a series of M-MOF-74 (M = Fe, Co, Ni) and compare the computational predictions to experimental data on magnetic properties and Mössbauer spectra.

Abstract
Two-dimensional atomic layer materials, as an important part of the post-Moore era, have recently become an ideal choice for the preparation of high-efficiency, low-power, and miniaturized gas sensors. In this work, our study utilized density functional theory and the nonequilibrium Green's function method to investigate the electronic properties of the pentagonal BN2 (P-BN2) monolayer, as well as its gas-sensing properties for organic and inorganic gases. We also investigated how defects affect the quantum transport properties of the P-BN2-based device. Our findings demonstrate that the CO, H2S, NH3, SO2, C2H5OH, C3H6OH, CH3OH, and CH4 undergo physisorption on the P-BN2 monolayer, while NO, NO2, C2H2, C2H4, and HCHO undergo chemisorption. Then, we analyzed the impact of gas molecules chemisorbed on the P-BN2 monolayer on the electronic transport properties of the P-BN2-based gas sensor. When these five gas molecules are adsorbed, the current of the P-BN2-based gas sensor is greatly reduced. In addition, the effect of defects on the quantum transport properties of the P-BN2-based device is investigated. The results indicate that defects of N, B, and BN atoms lead to a decrease in the current of P-BN2-based nanodevices. Moreover, both the adsorption of gas molecules and the formation of vacancy defects leading to a decrease in device current can be revealed by the local device density of states near the zero-bias Fermi level, elucidating their microscopic mechanisms. Finally, gas molecules can also cause a decrease in the current of defect systems. These theoretical studies are of great significance for exploring two-dimensional atomic layer materials as high-efficiency gas sensors.

Abstract
Photocatalytic hydrogen production via water splitting is the subject of intense research. Photoinduced electron transfer (PET) between a photosensitizer (PS) and a proton reduction catalyst is a prerequisite step and crucial to affecting hydrogen production efficiency. Herein, three photoactive metal-organic framework (MOF) systems having two different PET processes where PS and Co(II) centers are either covalently bonded or coexisting to drive photocatalytic H2 production are built. Compared to these two intramolecular PET systems including CoII -Zn-PDTP prepared from the post-synthetic metalation toward uncoordinated pyridine N sites of Zn-PDTP and sole cobalt-based MOF Co-PDTP, the CoII (bpy)3 @Zn-PDTP system impregnated by molecular cocatalyst possessing intermolecular PET process achieves the highest H2 evolution rate of 116.8 mmol g-1 h-1 over a period of 10 h, about 7.5 and 9.3 times compared to CoII -Zn-PDTP and Co-PDTP in visible-light-driven H2 evolution, respectively. Further studies reveal that the enhanced photoactivity in CoII (bpy)3 @Zn-PDTP can be ascribed to the high charge-separation efficiency of Zn-PDTP and the synergistic intermolecular interaction between Zn-PDTP and cobalt complexes. The present work demonstrates that the rational design of PET process between MOFs and catalytic metal sites can be a viable strategy for the development of highly efficient photocatalysts with enhanced photocatalytic activities.

Abstract
Toxic acids produced by industries are major hazards to the environment and human health, and luminescent pyrene-based crystalline metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) demonstrate promising performance in the detection of toxic acids. Herein, two novel isostructural 3D porous lanthanide MOFs, H3O·[Ln3(TBAPy)2(μ2-H2O)2(OH)2]·2DMA·2Diox·6.5H2O (Ln = Pr (1) and Ce (2); H4TBAPy (1,3,6,8-tetrakis(p-benzoic acid)pyrene); and DMA: N,N-dimethylacetamide) were synthesized, which showed alb topology. Based on the protonation and hydrogen bond mechanism, complex 1 could be used as a fluorescence recognition sensor for HX (X = F, Cl, Br, and I) acid solutions with different luminescence behaviors. It is worth noting that complex 1 exhibited high sensitivity in the fluorescence enhancement sensing of hydrofluoric acid, oxalic acid, and trichloroacetic acid. In particular, complex 1 had a low limit of detection (LOD) for OA (0.1 μM) and was applied to real monitoring of orange fruit samples. In addition, the PVA@1 film could selectively, sensitively, and quantitatively respond to hydrochloric acid (HCl) vapor through fluorescent quenching; due to its protonation and adsorption capacity, the LOD was 0.18 ppm. Therefore, the portable optical device, the PVA@1 film, can detect HCl gas in trace amounts, achieving the ultimate goal of real-time and rapid detection, which has potential application value for industrial production safety.

Abstract
Performing gas separation at high efficiency with minimum energy input and reduced carbon footprint is a major challenge. While several separation methods exist at various technology readiness levels, porous membrane-based separation is considered as a disruptive technology. To attain sustainability and required efficiency, different approaches of membrane design have been explored. However, the selectivity-permeation trade-off and membrane aging have restricted further advancement. In this regard, a new generation composite made of organic polymers and metal-organic framework (MOF) fillers shows substantial promise. Organic polymer matrix allows easy processibility, but it has poor permselectivity for gas molecules. Metal-organic frameworks are excellent sieving materials; however, they suffer from poor processibility issues. A combination of these two components makes an ideal sieving membrane, which can potentially outnumber the existing energy intensive distillation strategies. In this perspective, we have discussed key indices that regulate gas permselectivity by a careful selection of the existing literature. While the target gas flux and selectivity values have been a part of many previous reviews and articles, we have presented a concise discussion on the interface design of the MOF-polymer membrane, morphology, and orientation control of MOF fillers in the matrix. Following this, a future roadmap to overcome challenges related to MOF-polymer interfacial defects is outlined.
