Abstract

Two 3d-4f heterometallic coordination polymers {[Ln(PDA)3Mn1.5(H2O)3].3.25H2O}infinity with 1D channels were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions (PDA = pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid; Ln = Eu (1); Ln = Tb (2)). The emission intensities of 1 and 2 increased significantly upon addition of Zn2+, while the introduction of other metal ions caused the intensity to be either unchanged or weakened. The case implies that 1 and 2 may be used as luminescent probes of Zn2+.
