A three-dimensional network coordination polymer, (terephthalato)(pyridine)cadmium, with blue fluorescent emission

Abstract

The first terephthalato (TPT) bis-tridentate bridging cadmium coordination polymer, [(TPT)(py)Cd] 1, with blue fluorescent emission, was synthesized by a hydrothermal reaction between Cd(ClO₄)₂· 6H₂O, 1,4-dicyanobenzene and pyridine (py).
