Zn(II) Coordination Polymer: Luminescence Sensing for Fe Ion and Used as Metal Gel Particles Against Lung Cancer.

Presented here is a new Zn(II) coordination polymer, namely [Zn(L)(bpe)] (1, HL = 4-({2-[(4-carboxyphenoxy)methyl]phenyl}methoxy)benzoic acid, bpe = 1,2-bis(4-pyridinyl)ethane), which has been hydrothermally synthesized via the mixed-ligand strategy. Moreover, compound 1 emits intense luminescence at room temperature, and can be used as a luminescent sensor for the detection of Fe in water solution with high selectivity and sensitivity. As representatives of natural polysaccharides, hyaluronic acid (HA) and carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) have good biocompatibility. A new type of HA/CMCS gel particles loaded with Paclitaxel drug metal-organic framework was prepared by chemical synthesis method and its micromorphology was studied. Finally, biological experiments were conducted to evaluate the new system's effect on the activity of human lung cancer cells.
