A fluorescent paramagnetic Mn metal–organic framework based on semi-rigid pyrene tetracarboxylic acid: sensing of solvent polarity and explosive nitroaromatics

An Mn metal–organic framework (Mn-MOF), Mn-L, based on a pyrene-tetraacid linker (H4L), displays a respectable fluorescence quantum yield of 8.3% in spite of the presence of the paramagnetic metal ions, due presumably to fixation of the metal ions in geometries that do not allow complete energy/char...
