Cd -Organic Frameworks Fabricated with a N-Rich Ligand and Flexible Dicarboxylates: Structural Diversity and Multi-Responsive Luminescent Sensing for Toxic Anions and Ethylenediamine.

Three metal-organic frameworks {[Cd(L)(glu)]⋅3 H O} (1), {[Cd (L) (adi) ]⋅5 H O} (2) and {[Cd(L)(sub)]⋅3 H O⋅DMA } (3) (L=pyridine-3,5-bis(5-azabenzimidazole), H glu=glutaric acid, H adi=adipic acid and H sub=suberic acid) were obtained under solvothermal conditions. Complex 1 shows a 2D (4,4) network constructing of Cd -glu and Cd-L chains. Complex 2 presents a 2-fold interpenetrating 3D framework with pcu topology.
