Four 3D novel coordination polymers (CPs) have been synthesized under solvothermal conditions. Furthermore, gas sorption behaviors revealed that complex 1 has excellent selective separation for CO2/CH4.
Four Zn(ii)/Co(ii) CPs act as bifunctional materials in the detection of Fe(iii) cation, Cr(vi) anion, and nitrofuran antibiotics and removal of methylene blue in aqueous media.
