| Summary: | Sesamol, is well-known antioxidant and can reduce the rate of oxidation and prolong expiration date. It is also potentially antimutagenic and antihepatotoxic, the detection of sesamol is important and remains a huge challenge. Herein, a new 3D alkaline earth Sr metal organic framework [Sr(BDC)DMACH2O]n (BDC = benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate; DMAC = N,N-dimethylacetamide) is synthesized and a probe based on Tb3+ functionalized Sr-MOF. The Tb(3+)@Sr-MOF showed good luminescence and thermal property. Due to the energy competition between sesamol and ligand, the luminescence intensity of sesamol increases meantime luminescence intensity of Tb3+ decreases, the ratio of the emission intensities (I344/I545) linearly increases with sesamol in concentrations ranging from 1 × 10−7 to 8 × 10−4 M. Furthermore, the fluorescence-detected circular test shows that the composite Tb(3+)@Sr-MOF can serve as ratiometric sensor for sensing of sesamol. This is the first example for self-calibrated detecting sesamol based on metal-organic framework (MOF).
