Luminescent metal-organic frameworks (LMOFs) with diverse structural features and promising fluorescence-based applications have attracted wide attention in the past two decades. In this work, a LMOF with the formula [Ca₄(tcbpe-F)₂(H₂O)₃] (1, LMOF-411) has been constructed from calcium (Ca) and 1,1,2,2-tetrakis(4-(4-carboxyphenyl)phenyl)ethene (H₄tcbpe-F). Compound 1 features a three-dimensional framework with a 10-nodal net topology. Due to the relatively high hydration energy of Ca²⁺, compound 1 readily transforms into a new phase formulated as [Ca(H₂tcbpe-F)(H₂O)₂] (1') upon exposure to water. Combining experimental characterization and theoretical calculations, we elucidated the mechanism of H₂O-induced phase transition from 1 to 1'. Notably, the water induced phase transformation can be detected visibly from the change in luminescence, which originates from the fluorescent linker. Compound 1 emits green light (λ_em = 490 nm) under UV excitation, while compound 1' emits bright yellow light (λ_em = 550 nm) under blue excitation (450 nm). Compound 1' represents the first Ca based LMOF yellow phosphor and its luminescence quantum yield reaches 68%. It can be coated directly onto a commercial blue light-emitting-diode (LED) chip to fabricate a white LED (WLED).
