PPF-3 exhibits stronger photothermal effect than porphyrin ligands. This is attributed to the enhancement of light absorption ability and the occurrence of PET from ligands to metal nodes to suppress radiative recombination of electron–hole pairs.

The MOF provides unique confined space furnished with electron acceptor sites, and exposure to amines/alcohols causes specific and size-selective direct/UV-assisted color change owing to spontaneous/photoinduced electron transfer.

For the first time, hydrogen bonding and π–π stacking are demonstrated to play cooperative roles in the intermolecular electron transfer process from nitrobenzene to MOF sensors, which lead to the luminescence quenching detection of nitrobenzene.

A novel pillared-layer Cd-MOF was synthesized as luminescent sensor for detection of nitroaromatic explosives with highly selective and recyclable properties. The study also shows that the photoinduced electron transfer and resonance energy transfer were possible mechanisms of fluorescence quenching.

2,4,6-Tris(pyridin-4-yl)-1,3,5-triazine (tpt), as an organic molecule with an electron-deficient nature, has attracted considerable interest because of its photoinduced electron transfer from neutral organic molecules to form stable anionic radicals. This makes it an excellent candidate as an organic linker in the construction of photochromic complexes. Such a photochromic three-dimensional (3D) metal–organic framework (MOF) has been prepared using this ligand. Crystallization of tpt with Cd(NO3)2·4H2O in an N,N-dimethylacetamide–methanol mixed-solvent system under solvothermal conditions afforded the 3D MOF poly[[bis(nitrato-κ2 O,O′)cadmium(II)]-μ3-2,4,6-tris(pyridin-4-yl)-1,3,5-triazine-κ3 N 2:N 4:N 6], [Cd(NO3)2(C18H12N6)] n , which was characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The X-ray diffraction crystal structure analysis reveals that the asymmetric unit contains one independent CdII cation, one tpt ligand and two coordinated NO3 − anions. The CdII cations are connected by tpt ligands to generate a 3D framework. The single framework leaves voids that are filled by mutual interpenetration of three independent equivalent frameworks in a fourfold interpenetrating architecture. The compound shows a good thermal stability and exhibits a reversible photochromic behaviour, which may originate from the photoinduced electron-transfer generation of radicals in the tpt ligand.

An attractive strategy for the development of photocatalytic metal organic framework (MOF) materials is to co-encapsulate a photoactive electron donor with a catalytic electron acceptor within the MOF.
