Abstract
A new metal–organic framework of Zn(II) ion, [Zn(muco)(bipy)·2H2O] (where, muco = trans, trans-muconate dianion, bipy = 4,4′-bipyridine) has been synthesized by solvothermal reaction of Zn(II) ion, muco ligand and bipy spacer. X-ray structure determination reveals that compound 1 has a 3D diamondoid (dia) framework with novel fivefold interpenetrating nets. Topological analysis shows the presence of 4-connected Zn(II) nodes with {66} topology. Thermal analysis reveals that the compound is stable up to 340 °C. Photoluminescence study shows the emission of 1 owing to the presence of muco ligand and the intensity of luminescence emission is higher than that of free muco ligand.
