摘要
Enhancing electrochemiluminescence (ECL) properties of luminophores is a hot direction in the current ECL field. Herein, we found that covalent rigidification of the aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) TABE (TABE = tetra-(4-aldehyde-(1,1-biphenyl))ethylene) into covalent organic framework nanosheets (TABE-PZ-CON, PZ = piperazine) could result in stronger ECL emission than those of TABE aggregates and TABE monomers. We termed the interesting phenomenon "covalent rigidification-triggered electrochemiluminescence (CRT-ECL) enhancement". The superior ECL performance of TABE-PZ-CON not only because massive TABE luminogens were covalently assembled into the rigid TABE-PZ-CON network, which limited the intramolecular motions of TABE and hampered the radiationless transition, but also because the ultrathin porous TABE-PZ-CON significantly reduced the transportation distance of ions, electrons, and coreactants, which enabled the electrochemical excitation of more TABE luminogens and thus enhanced the ECL efficiency. Bearing in mind the exceptional ECL performance of TABE-PZ-CON, it was utilized as a high-efficient ECL indicator in combination with the DNA walker and duplex-specific nuclease-assisted target recycling amplification strategies to design an "off-on" ECL biosensor for the ultrasensitive assay of microRNA-21, exhibiting a favorable response range (100 aM-1 nM) with an ultralow detection limit of 17.9 aM. Overall, this work offers a valid way to inhibit the intramolecular motions of AIEgens for ECL enhancement, which gives a new vision for building high-performance AIEgen-based ECL materials, thus offering more chances for assembling hypersensitive ECL biosensors.
