Abstract:

A two-dimensional threefold interpenetrated uranium-organic framework (UOF) has been synthesized by the solvothermal method with a highly luminescent response of various molecules. The structure of the compound is characterized by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction, [C₂₇H₁₇O₁₁U] [C₂H₆N]·DMF·2H₂O·(UTCPB), with a six-coordinated uranyl cation, further proved by the IR, TG and others tests. To explore the functional properties, photoluminescent, dye adsorption, and metal detecting properties have been also studied and discussed initially. The results showed that the compound exhibited some features in dye adsorption (RhB) and Ru³⁺ detection.

Keywords: Uranium-organic framework; Interpenetrated structure; Photoluminescent; Dye adsorption; Fluorescence quenching
