Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Luminescent Properties of a Novel Cadmium Coordination Polymer

A novel cadmium metal-organic coordination polymer, namely Cd(atda)(3-abpt)(H2O)·2H2O (H2atda = (4-amino-1,2,4-triazole-3,5-diyldithio) diacetic acid, 3-abpt = 4-amino-3,5-bis(3-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole)), has been obtained under hydrothermal conditions by the reaction of cadmium salts with two kinds of organic ligands, characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, elemental analysis, and thermogravimetric analysis. Structural analysis reveals that complex possesses a 2D honeycomb network. Additionally, the complex show strong fluorescence in solid state at room temperature.
