The detection techniques for glyphosate residues have garnered attention due to the potential toxicity associated. Herein, we introduced a fluorescent “turn-on” strategy, leveraging competitive coordination with iron, for glyphosate detection. We synthesized iron-based metal-organic frameworks (Fe-MOFs) at room temperature. Among them, 2,5-dihydroxyterephthalic acid (DOBDC) acted as a ligand to produce strong fluorescence, and iron ions acted as a quencher to quench the fluorescence of DOBDC. Another ligand, 2-nitroterephthalic acid, containe...
