Abstract:
A real turn-on: a luminescent lanthanide metal-organic framework shows strong and fast turn-on responses to N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) vapor. The selective turn-on effect is triggered mainly by DMF-ligand interactions, along with the removal of quencher, water, from the metal coordination sphere.
