1,3,5-Tris(4-formyl-3-hydroxyphenyl)benzene (CAS number 2244985-34-8) is composed of three salicylaldehydes attached to a benzene ring. The salicylaldehyde, also known as 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde, readily undergoes reactions with amine and hydrazine derivatives, resulting in the formation of a hydroxy-imine moiety. This hydroxy-imine moiety can coordinate with a metal centre, leading to the production of metal-COF complexes. Furthermore, the hydroxy-imine moiety exhibits an excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) during photoirradiation, producing remarkable luminescence. When anions such as fluorides are introduced to the COFs, the luminescence is quenched due to the interaction between the anions and the hydroxyl group, thereby switching off the ESIPT process. Consequently, the COFs synthesized from 1,3,5-tris(4-formyl-3-hydroxyphenyl)benzene can be effectively employed in anion sensors.
The COFs based on 1,3,5-tris(4-formyl-3-hydroxyphenyl)benzene are proposed as a self-made solid-phase extraction for the analysis of α2- and β2-ARAs residue in milk. This is attributed to the abundant hydroxy groups in the COF networks and their high surface area of 597 m2/g.
