• •An unique 3D Zn-MOF was synthesized as high sensitive fluorescent sensor for detecting Hg(II) and Cr(VI).•The process of detecting Hg(II) exhibited color transition from blue to green observed easily by naked eyes.•The LODs of Cr(VI) are superior to most pre-existing chemosensors based on MOFs.•The sensing ability can be recycled for more than six times.•The MOF-based fluorescent test-paper provided reliable and visual detection of Hg(II) and Cr(VI) in practical application. Accurate and visual methods aimed to pollution monitoring were insistent demands of scientists. For this purpose, a novel metal-organic framework (MOF), formulated as [Zn(tpbpc)2]·solvent (Htpbpc = 4′-[4,2′;6′,4′′]-terpyridin-4′-yl-biphenyl-4-carboxylic acid), has been isolated and structurally characterized; it exhibits unique (2,8)-connected 8T20 (MOF.ttd) topology with binuclear [Zn2(COO)4N4]n secondary building units (SBUs) as 8-c nodes and tpbpc− ligands as 2-c nodes. Strikingly, this is the first multi-responsive MOFs fluorescent sensor for simultaneously detecting Hg2+, CrO42− and Cr2O72− ions with high sensitivity and low detection limits in aqueous solution. Meanwhile, the fluorescent sensor for Hg2+ exhibits a color transition in seconds which can be observed by the naked eyes. What is more, the chemosensor based on the Zn-MOF for detecting Cr(VI) ions possesses a very low detection down to 10−8 M, which is the lowest detection limit among all reported up to date. Importantly, the luminescence can be fast regenerated and its sensing ability can be recycled for more than six times. In addition, the simple MOF-based fluorescent test paper was successfully prepared, which provided a reliable and visual detection of Hg2+, CrO42− and Cr2O72− in practical application.
