Structural diversity of a series of terpyridyl carboxylate coordination polymers: Luminescent sensor and magnetic properties

Eleven new Zn(II)/Cd(II)/Co(II) coordination polymers and a closely zinc compound which have diverse structures, dimensionalities and topologies were synthesized under hydrothermal/solvothermal conditions, showing excellent photoluminescence, antiferromagnetic properties and highly efficient luminescent sensing for Fe3+ and NB.325
