A new cadmium-organic framework fluorescent sensor for Al3Â + and Ca2Â + ions in aqueous medium

A new Cd(II) MOF with 3,3′,5,5′-biphenyltetracarboxylic acid was synthesized by solvothermal reaction, which possesses selective turn-on luminescent sensing function towards Ca2 + and Al3 + ions in aqueous solutions.241
