Hydrophobic ethyl, butyl or hexyl groups were introduced into the dicarboxylate ligand in the fluorescent porous coordination framework [Zn-2(fda)(2)(bpy)] (LMOF-202, H(2)fda=9H-fluorene-2,7-dicarboxylic acid, bpy=4,4-bipyridine) for improving water stability and tuning oxygen sensitivity. The long hexyl groups gave satisfactory water stability but its oxygen sensitivity is low (70.8% fluorescence quenched at 1 bar O-2 (1 bar=10(5) Pa)). In contrast, the shorter side groups gave high oxygen sensitivity (93.9% fluorescence quenched at 1 bar O-2) and low water stability. The derivation of the Stern-Volmer curves of the O-2 luminescence quenching data from the linear form can be used for detecting trace impurities in the luminescent framework, being much more sensitive than conventional methods such as powder X-ray diffraction. Mixing the ethyl and hexyl groups in the solid-solution manner brought high oxygen sensitivity (96.4% fluorescence quenched at 1 bar O-2) and high water stability simultaneously in the same coordination framework.
