Abstract
Hydrothermally reaction of Cd(NO3)2·4H2O, pimelic acid (H2Pim) mixed with two N-containing ligands of 1,2-bis(2-methyl-imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene (1,2-mbix) or 1,3-bis(2-methyl-imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene (1,3-mbix) gave rise to two new Cd(II) MOFs, [Cd(Pim)(1,2-mbix)] (1) and [Cd(Pim)(1,3-mbix)]·H2O (2). Both MOFs were structurally characterized by IR and UV–Vis spectra, single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analyses. MOF 1 shows a fourfold interpenetrating dia network. Differently, MOF 2 shows a 2D → 3D interdigitated architecture base on the 63 hcb layer when 1,2-mbix was replaced by 1,3-mbix. The luminescent properties of 1 and 2 have been investigated. Furthermore, the luminescent quenching experiments suggest both MOFs exhibit good selectivity and sensitivity to detect Fe3+ and Cr2O72− in water.
