Achiral coordination polymers of a thiol ligand with Ag+ in aqueous solution were shown to be able to sense the chirality of a monosaccharide that binds with the boronic acid group designed to be equipped in the thiol ligand.

The acid ionization constant of the carboxylic acid group of fluorene-9-carboxylic acid in aqueous solution at 25 °C was determined to be pKa = 3.61, using a method based upon the increase in solubility of this sparingly soluble substance brought about by its ionization. This corrects an earlier considerably different value of this quantity determined by equating pKa with the pH measured at half-neutralization. The hazard inherent in the latter method when applied to sparingly soluble substances is discussed.

By slow diffusion of pyridine (py) into an aqueous solution containing the respective metal salt and acetylenedicarboxylic acid (H2ADC), single crystals of coordination polymers of composition 1∞[MII(H2O)2(py)2ADC] with MII = Zn (1) and Cd (2) were obtained. The crystal structures consist of octahedral MIIN2O4 units, which are connected to chains via acetylenedicarboxylate dianions. Hydrogen bonds between O atoms of the dianions and of the water molecules lead to the formation of layers perpendicular to [010]. The structure is further held together by weak aromatic stacking interactions between the pyridine ligands.

Coordination polymers (CPs) with specific structures and functional luminescence have been widely designed as sensors for detecting small molecules and ions. In this study, with or without the help of an N-donor auxiliary linker, three new ZnII CPs, namely, three-dimensional (3D) poly[[pentaaquabis[μ3-5-(4-carboxybenzyloxy)isophthalato]bis[μ6-5-(4-carboxylatobenzyloxy)isophthalato]di-μ3-hydroxido-hexazinc(II)] trihydrate], {[Zn6(C16H10O7)2(C16H9O7)2(OH)2(H2O)5]·3H2O} n or {[Zn6(μ3-HL)2(μ6-L)2(μ3-OH)2(H2O)5]·3H2O} n , (I), one-dimensional (1D) catena-poly[[[aqua(1,10-phenanthroline)zinc(II)]-μ2-5-(4-carboxybenzyloxy)isophthalato] dihydrate], {[Zn(C16H10O7)(C12H8N2)(H2O)]·2H2O} n or {[Zn(μ2-HL)(phen)(H2O)]·2H2O} n (phen is 1,10-phenanthroline), (II), and 3D poly[diaquatetrakis(4,4′-bipyridine)bis[μ6-5-(4-carboxylatobenzyloxy)isophthalato]di-μ3-formato-di-μ3-hydroxido-pentazinc(II)], [Zn5(C16H9O7)2(HCOO)2(OH)2(C10H8N2)4(H2O)2] n or [Zn5(μ4-L)2(bpy)4(μ2-OH)2(μ3-HCOO)2(H2O)2] n (bpy is 4,4′-bipyridine), (III), have been constructed from the semi-rigid tricarboxylic acid 5-(4-carboxybenzyloxy)isophthalic acid (H3 L) under hydrothermal conditions. CP (I) exhibits a twofold interpenetrated 3D+3D→3D skeleton with a 3,5-conn topology constructed from triangular trinuclear [Zn3(COO)4(μ3-OH)] clusters, in which the H3 L ligand adopts three different coordination modes. CP (II) exhibits a 1D infinite chain and stacking that gives a 3D structure mediated by hydrogen bonds and weak interactions. CP (III) is an interesting 3D 3,4,8-conn network including linear tetranuclear [Zn4(μ2-OH)2(HCOO)2(COO)2] clusters with a new {4·62}2{4·64·8}{46·619·83} topological symbol. The influences of the flexible –CH2–O– linker of the H3 L ligand and subtle environmental factors, such as solvent, pH value and auxiliary ligands, on the formation of the final structures are also discussed. The solid-state fluorescence spectra of CPs (I)–(III) were recorded at room temperature and all show better fluorescence performances than H3 L. In particular, (II) can act as a potential multifunctional fluorescent material for sensing hexavalent chromium ions in aqueous solution with high stability, selectivity and sensitivity. Under ultraviolet light of 365 nm from a UV lamp, a signal response of fluorescence from turning on to off can be observed with the naked eye. It was found that the detection for hexavalent chromium (i.e. Cr2O7 2−) by (II) has a high selectivity [K SV = 1.61 × 104 M −1 and limit of detection (LOD) = 0.434 µM] in aqueous solution. Quenching mechanisms were also studied in detail.
