Controlled Synthesis of Preferential Facet‐Exposed Fe‐MOFs for Ultrasensitive Detection of Peroxides

Exposing different facets on metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is highly desirable to enhance the performance for various applications, however, exploiting a concise and effective approach to achieve facet-controlled synthesis of MOFs remains challenging. Here, by modulating the ratio of metal precursors to ligands, the facet-engineered iron-based MOFs (Fe-MOFs) exhibits enhanced catalytic activity for Fenton reaction are explored, and the mechanism of facet-dependent performance is revealed in detail. Fully exposed (101) and (100) facets on spindle-shaped Fe-MOFs enable rapid oxidation of colorless o-phenylenediamine (OPD) to colored products, thereby establishing a dual-mode platform for the detection of hydrogen peroxide (H
