Structural Elucidation And Electrochemiluminescence On A 3D Cadmium (II) MOF With 5-C Topology

Abstract A novel cadmium (II) based MOF, [Cd(μ–ppza)]n (1) (H2ppza = 3–(pyridin–4–yl)–1H–pyrazole–5–carboxylic acid) was synthesized under solvothermal condition. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals that the title MOF 1 exhibits a 3D structure bridged through the carboxylic group, which has a 5-c {46.64} topological structure. Furthermore, MOF 1 exhibits good electrochemiluminescence (ECL) behavior.
