Bifunctional In-MOFs for Selective and Sensitive Detection of Trace Nitrobenzene Compounds in Water and Possessing High Proton Conductivity

With the escalating prevalence of terrorism and global environmental pollution, nitroaromatic compounds (NACs) have increasingly come into focus as the primary culprit. To counter these challenges, it is imperative to develop simple and efficient methods for detecting NACs. Considering the electron-deficient structure of NAC molecules, this paper constructed a novel three-dimensional In-MOF with permanent porosity using electron-rich organic molecules 4'-1,2,2-tris(3',5'-dicarboxy[1,1'-biphenyl-4-yl)ethenyl]-1,1'-biphenyl-3,5-dicarboxylic acid (H
