Blue-green photoluminescent 5- and 10-connected metal 5-(4′-carboxy-phenyl)tetrazolate coordination polymers

Hydrothermal reaction of Zn/Cd salts, NaN3 and 4-cyanobenzoic acid via in situ [2 + 3] cycloaddition generated two blue-green photoluminescent coordination polymers [Zn(cptta)(H2O)] (1) and [Cd(cptta)(H2O)] (2) (H2cptta = 5-(4′-carboxy-phenyl)tetrazole). When only metal ions are considered as nodes, 1 shows rare 5-connected Shubnikov plane topological type and 2 has unprecedented 10-connected {312.424.59} topological type.
