Methyl functionalization of trimesic acid in copper-based metal-organic framework for ammonia colorimetric sensing at high relative humidity

Exhaled ammonia(NH3)can be used as a crucial biomarker of kidney and liver diseases.However,the high humidity in the detection conditions remains a challenge for accurate detection by gas sensors.Herein,a copper-based metal-organic framework(CH3-Cu-BTC)with methyl(CH3-)functionalization of trimesic acid was synthesized for NH3 colorimetric sensing.The CH3-Cu-BTC exhibited a strong response for 5 ppm NH3 with high selectivity under high relative humidity(75%RH).Density functional theory(DFT)simulations indicated that the NH3 molecules interacted more strongly with CH3-Cu-BTC than H2O molecules did,and the corresponding color switching was attributed to the lone-pair electron in NH3 changing the coordination environment of Cu2+ions,leading to an obviously visible color switching re-sponse from ruby green to blue.Based on the tailor-made pore chemistry,the precise detection of trace amounts of NH3 in exhaled air was realized through functionalized MOF materials.The strategy used in this study not only offers a new pathway for the rapid detection of low concentration NH3 under humid conditions,but also shows a method for early respiration diagnosis of kidney and liver diseases.
