Abstract
AbstractTwo new compounds, namely [Zn(1,4‐ndc)(L1)] (1), and [Zn(1,4‐ndc)(L2)]·0.25H2O (2) [L1 = 2‐phenylimidazole, L2 = 1,1′‐(1,4‐butanediyl)bis(imidazole), and 1,4‐ndc = 1,4‐naphthalenedicarboxylate] were successfully synthesized under similar hydrothermal conditions. In compound 1, each 1,4‐ndc anion links two neighboring ZnII cations with its carboxylate groups to generate a 2D layer structure. The L1 ligands are attached on both sides of the layers. In compound 2, each carboxylate group of 1,4‐ndc connects one ZnII atom in monodentate mode to form a 1D zigzag chain. Further, the L2 ligands link the chains to generate an expanded diamond net. Four diamond networks interweave to form a 3D interpenetrating diamond framework in an unusual [2+2] mode. Furthermore, the title compounds exhibit good luminescent properties in the range from ultraviolet to visible light and may find potential applications as fluorescent materials.
