Reversible shrinkage and expansion of a blue photofluorescent cadmium coordination polymer and in situtetrazole ligand synthesis

Abstract

The metal–organic framework [Cd15(5MT)18(OH)4(SO4)4] (5-MT = 5-methyl-1H-tetrazole) with an unprecedented Cd33-OH)(μ3-SO4) core and two kinds of tetrazole coordination modes was formed by self-assembly and in situ synthesis of the 5-MT tetrazole ligand; the structure exhibits an unusual 39·412·515 topological network and shows reversible shrinkage and expansion in a crystal-to-crystal dehydration/rehydration process.
