Single-crystal-to-single crystal structural conversions occur in a Zn(ii) coordination polymer, uniquely induced by fine-tuned relative humidity. Proton conductivity depends on the number of hydrogen bonds in the structures. Slope change in the Arrhenius plot is uncommon among coordination-based conductors and associated with temperature-dependent phase changes.

Metal-organic complexes with long afterglow luminescence have attracted extensive attention due to potential applications in display, sensing and information security. However, most of the metal-organic complex long afterglow materials reported so far are limited to the use of UV light as the excitation source, and the ambiguity of the structure-activity relationship makes the development of metal-organic complexes extremely limited. Herein, a series of metal-organic complexes with ultralong emission lifetime is constructed by coordination assembly of Zn(II) with three isomers.

Energy crisis and environmental pollution are two central themes of contemporary research towards achieving sustainable development goals (SDGs). Material chemistry is the chief discipline that can resolve glitches in these areas through the appropriate design of chemical compounds with multifunctional properties. In this regard, two stable coordination polymers (CPs) were synthesised in this work using Zn(II) (3d) and Cd(II) (d) metal nodes with 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate () as the bridging ligand and monodentate pyridyl-N coordinated 9-fluoren-2-yl-pyridin-4-ylmethylene-amine (flpy) as the fluorogenic partner.

Solid-state synthesis is an approach to organic synthesis that is desirable because it can offer minimal or no solvent waste, high yields, and relatively low energy footprints. Herein, we report the solid-state synthesis of a novel Schiff base, 4-{()-[(4-methylpyridin-3-yl)imino]methyl}benzoic acid (), synthesized through the reaction of an amine and an aldehyde. was prepared via solvent-drop (water) grinding (SDG) on a multigram scale with 97% yield and was characterized using FTIR, H NMR, and SCXRD.

Electronic address:

A magnetic chitosan-based ion-imprinted polymer (IIP) with high adsorption capacity, excellent selectivity for Ga(III), easy magnetic separation, and remarkable reusability was synthesized via a simple crosslinking polymerization. The IIP exhibited a Ga(III) adsorption capacity of 434.00 mg/g at pH 4, demonstrating high efficiency for Ga(III) removal from aqueous solutions.

The photophysical properties of six new luminescent tetrahedral Zn(II) complexes are presented that survey two electronic donor moieties (phenolate and carbazolate) and three electronic acceptors (pyridine, pyrimidine, and pyrazine). A unique ligand based on an -terphenyl motif forms an eight-membered chelate, which enhances through-space charge-transfer (CT) interactions by limiting through-bond conjugation between the donor and acceptor. A single isomeric product was obtained in yields up to 90%.
