A Novel 2d Zinc(II) Coordination Polymer Based on 2,2'-bipyridine-4,4'-dicarboxylic Acid: Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Photoluminescence Property

Abstract

A new two dimensional 2,2′-bipyridine-4,4′-dicarboxylate Zn(II) coordination polymer was obtained by hydrothermal synthesis and characterized by IR spectrum and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal lattice hosts the N,N-dimethylformamide and water solvent molecules. The new material reveals blue-orange luminescence upon excitation with ultraviolet light.
