Solvent-Responsive Afterglow Switching in a Coordination Polymer and Its Application for DMSO Detection
-diethylformamide, or acetonitrile; and (iii) a multistage leap with tunable emission in the presence of methanol or ethanol. Mechanistic studies reveal the afterglow turn-on triggered by DMSO arises jointly from enhanced structural rigidity and increased frontier-orbital delocalization. This work establishes CPs as versatile platforms for studying solvent-regulated afterglow and demonstrates their promise in advanced chemical sensing.
