Three-dimensional metal–organic frameworks constructed from bix and 1,2,4-benzenetricarboxylate

Abstract

Two new metal–organic complexes [Cd1.5(btrc)(bix)]n (1) and [Zn2(btrc)(Hbtrc)0.5(bix)2]n(2) (H3btrc = 1,2,4-benzenetricarboxylate; bix = 1,4-bis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)-benzene) have been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex 1 represents a three-dimensional (3D) structure based on the 2D sheets and bix pillars. Complex 2 exhibits unique architecture. The two complexes exhibit strong fluorescent emissions in their solid states at room temperature.
