Abstract
A zinc supracluster [Zn24(ATZ)18(AcO)30(H2O)1.5]·(H2O)3.5 (Zn24), and a 1D zinc supracluster chain {[Zn24(ATZ)18(AcO)30(C2H5OH)2(H2O)3]·(H2O)2.5}n (1-D⊂Zn24) with molecular diameters of 2 nm were synthesized under regulatory solvothermal conditions or the micro bottle method. In an N,N-dimethylformamide solution of Zn24, Fe3+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Cr2+ and Co2+ ions exhibited fluorescence-quenching effects, while the rare earth ions Ce3+, Dy3+, Er3+, Eu3+, Gd3+, Ho3+, La3+, Nd3+, Sm3+, and Tb3+showed no obvious fluorescence quenching. In ethanol solution, the Zn24 supracluster can be used to selectively detect Ce3+ ions with excellent efficiency (limit of detection (LOD) = 8.51 × 10−7 mol/L). The Zn24 supracluster can also detect wavelengths between 302 and 332 nm using the intensity of the emitted light.
