Summary:A new metal–organic framework (MOF), [{(H 3 O)[Eu (SBDB)(H 2 O) 2 ]} n ] (H 4 SBDB = 1,5-disulfo-benzene-2,4-dicarboxylic acid) ( 1 ), was successfully synthesized under solvothermal conditions. Ten central Eu 3+ ions are coordinated by the H 4 SBDB ligands and two coordination water molecules. The adjacent Eu 3+ ions are connected by oxygen atoms from carboxyl groups, forming a 1D chain. 1D chains are linked by H 4 SBDB ligands to induce a 2D infinitely extensible planar structure, and then connected by hydrogen bonds to form a 3D supernetwork structure. Complex 1 exhibits excellent thermal and chemical stability. AC impedance analysis shows that the highest proton conductivity of 1 reaches up to 1.0 × 10 −4 S cm −1 (338 K, 98% RH). Furthermore, complex 1 is an excellent luminescence-based sensor with high sensitivity and a low detection limit for ascorbic acid (AA) in aqueous solutions.
