Abstract: | A new Cd-MOF containing the nucleobase adenine and multicarboxylates, Cd2(tdc)2(1H-ade)2(H2O) (H2tdc = 2,5-thiophene carboxylic acid, 1H-ade = adenine), was synthesized successfully under hydrothermal condition and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, infrared spectrum, thermogravimetric analysis and photoluminescence. The two crystallographically unsymmetrical Cd atoms are bridged by 2,5-tdc ligands with (κ1-κ1)-(κ1)-μ3 and (κ1–κ1)–μ2 modes into two dimensional extended layers, which are further pillared with the neutral ade molecules to form a 3D frameworks stabilized by extensive π ··· π interactions between imidazole-, pyrimidine- and thiophene-rings. Inspection of the structure reveals that the architecture can be simplified as a 3,4,5- connected networks with a Schläfli symbol of (62 · 8)(42 · 63 · 8)(42 · 65 · 83). The photochemical property shows that the luminescent emission can be significantly quenched by aromatic azo compounds. The quenching effect coefficient (Ksv) for bis(4-imidazol-1-yl-phenyl)diazene is determined to be 4.1 × 104 m –1, indicating the title compound as a potential fluorescent sensing materials. |
