• Coreactant electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is one of the most popular pathways in commercial analysis, which can provide simplicity and convenience for getting intense ECL emission. However, the low efficiency of intermolecular electron transfer could weaken ECL intensity. In this work, we developed an enhanced ECL strategy through in situ coordination interactions between metal-organic framework emitters and coreactants. First, a metal-organic framework (MOF) emitter was synthesized with 1,1,2,2-tetrakis(4-(pyridin-4-yl)phenyl)ethane (TPPE) as aggregation-induced emission linkers and Zn as nodes. Interestingly, compared to TPPE ligand, the resulted MOF nanoemitters demonstrated 49.5 folds enhancement of ECL emission in the presence of 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) as the coreactant. More significantly, different from the constant ECL intensity using TPrA coreactant, DABCO exhibited time-dependent ECL intensity due to the intrareticular electron transfer through coordination interaction between DABCO and Zn2+, which was confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectral experiments. The enhanced ECL was then applied to construct a sensitive ECL method to detect dopamine in serum samples. The coordination interaction between emitters and coreactants not only provides a universal way to enhance ECL, but also expands the applications of coreactant ECL system in convenience route.
