Incorporation of metal-organic framework amino-modified MIL-101 into glycidyl methacrylate monoliths for nano LC separation.
Metal-organic frameworks consisting of amino-modified MIL-101(M: Cr, Al, and Fe) crystals have been synthesized and subsequently incorporated to glycidyl methacrylate monoliths to develop novel stationary phases for nano-liquid chromatography. Two incorporation approaches of these materials in monoliths were explored. The metal-organic framework materials were firstly attached to the pore surface through reaction of epoxy groups present in the parent glycidyl methacrylate-based monolith. Alternatively, NH2 -MIL-101(M) were admixed in the polymerization mixture. Using short time UV-initiated polymerization, monolithic beds with homogenously dispersed metal-organic frameworks were obtained. T…
Optical recognition and removal of Hg(II) using a new self-chemosensor based on a modified amino-functionalized Al-MOF
Abstract We developed a simple self-chemical optical sensor for the monitoring and removal of ultra-trace levels of Hg(II) from aqueous media. The development of this sensor was based on the covalent attachment of amino-functionalized aluminum-based MOF particles with ninhydrin. The new sensor is densely coated with a chelating ligand to permit an ultra-fast, selective, pH-dependent visualization for removal of Hg(II) with detection limit (LOD∼0.494 μg L−1). Monitoring was accomplished via both a colorimetric signal visible to the naked eye as well as UV–vis absorption spectroscopy. Digital image-based colorimetric analysis has also used as a semi-quantitative analysis for determination the…
