Construction of a novel Cd(II) coordination polymer based on a flexible tripodal carboxylic acid and bimid coligands

A new Cd(II) coordination polymer with a rare doubly-interpenetrating (3,5)-connected hms topology exhibits strong fluorescent emission upon excitation at room temperature. The gas adsorption result indicated that compound 1 is potential material for the storage and separation of CO2 and CH4.91
