摘要
The sensitive and accurate detection of trace water in solid food products is of great significance for the protection of their stability and quality. Herein, a novel crystalline COF TAPT-BPTA with fluorescence was prepared via Schiff-base condensation reaction between 4,4′,4″-(1,3,5-Triazine-2,4,6-triyl)trianiline (TAPT) and 2,5-bis(2-propyn-1-yloxy)-1,4-benzenedicarboxaldehyde (BPTA). The fluorescence of TAPT-BPTA was sensitive to trace water and can be quenched due to the disruption of intermolecular charge transfer (ICT) process by water molecules. Hence, COF TAPT-BPTA was successfully applied for sensing of trace water in common organic solvents including acetone, acetonitrile, THF and DMF with rapid response (less than 3 s) and good sensing ranges (0.05–20 v/v% for acetone, 0.10–25 v/v% for THF, 0.05–15 v/v% for ACN, and 0.05–10 v/v% for DMF). The limit of detection of water in acetone, ACN, DMF, THF were 0.0585%, 0.0631%, 0.0185% and 0.0718% (v/v), respectively. Additionally, using TAPT-BPTA as signal probe and tris(2,2′-bipyridyl)ruthenium (II) dichloride with red fluorescent as reference, a ratiometric fluorescent sensor was prepared and successfully used for the sensing of trace water in milk powder samples.
