Hydrothermal syntheses and characterization of a series of mixed-ligand luminescent CdII frameworks with novel 2-(3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl) acetate ligand and benzenedicarboxylate isomers

This work presents three fluorescent Cd(II) coordination polymers based on a novel 2-(3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl) acetate and different benzenedicarboxylate isomers (phthalate, isophthalate, and terephthalate), which exhibit distinct 1D chain and 2D layered coordination arrays.
