A cadmium(II) complex, prepared by reaction of Cd(NO3)2·6H2O with terephthalic acid and 1,4-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene in H2O, possesses a three-dimensional framework with 3,8-connected three-dimensional binodal {4.52}2{42.510.612.7.83} topology. The compound exhibits a strong fluorescence emission in the solid state at room temperature.
metal-organic compounds
The title compound has a fivefold interpenetrating diamondoid three-dimensional metal-organic framework, with each ZnII centre surrounded by two O-donor atoms from monodentate carboxylate groups belonging to two different benzene-1,4-diacetate ligands and by two triazole N-donor atoms from two different 1,4-bis[(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene ligands.
