Author interpretations and caveats

Paraphrased for this database from the authors’ stated interpretations — never quoted verbatim — and kept separate from reported measurements.

Application RelevanceSupport assessment: High

Compound 1 selectively detects TNP among tested nitroaromatics with high fluorescence quenching and sub-micromolar LOD.

Caveat: Sensing data are in acetonitrile suspension; application paper-strip evidence is qualitative.

p005 / journal page 12777 · Sensing Property toward NAEs · Figures 3-4 · Linked to 3 structured results

CaveatSupport assessment: High

No first-hand gas sorption, BET surface area, pore-size distribution, or other porosity measurement is reported for compound 1.

Caveat: The introduction mentions porous MOFs generally, but this paper reports no porosity data for 1.

p001-p010 · Full article and SI review

Phase AssignmentSupport assessment: High

Compound 1 is phase-pure by PXRD and retains its diffraction pattern after pH treatment, TNP exposure, and mild heating.

Caveat: PXRD evidence is qualitative in the paper; no phase-fraction refinement is reported.

p004 / journal page 12776 · PXRD and TGA Experiment · Figure S10 · Linked to 3 structured results

Structure Property LinkSupport assessment: Medium

The authors propose that 1D chain self-assembly, flexible linkers, and polyaromatic N-donor ligands enable through-space charge transport and improved charge mobility.

Caveat: Direct mobility or anisotropic transport measurements were not reported.

Structure Property LinkSupport assessment: Medium

TNP quenching is attributed to combined static/dynamic quenching with FRET and PET contributions.

Caveat: Mechanistic assignment is interpretive; lifetime changes are small.

Synthesis MechanismSupport assessment: High

H2pbiq is air-oxidised in situ to pbiq during Cd(II) coordination-polymer formation.

Caveat: The paper infers aerial oxidation from product structure and reports a separate SI air-oxidation route to pbiq.

p003 / journal page 12775 · Structure of compound 1 · Scheme S2

Transport MechanismSupport assessment: High

The Al/compound 1/ITO device behaves as a Schottky diode and compound 1 is a semiconducting CP with conductivity 1.10 x 10-5 S m-1.

Caveat: Conductivity is derived from a thin-film device; film spin-coating concentration and morphology are not fully reported.
