Self-assembly of cerium-based metal–organic tetrahedrons for size-selectively luminescent sensing natural saccharides

Yang Liu, Xiao Wu, Cheng He, Yang Jiao and Chunying Duan


New Ce-based Werner type tetrahedrons were achieved for size-selectively luminescent detection of natural carbohydrates through incorporating amide groups as both the multiple hydrogen bonding triggers and binding-signalling transductor.
