Application

1,2-Di(4-pyridyl)ethylene is extensively used as a ligand/linker in the synthesis of a variety of metal-organic frameworks(MOFs) and coordination polymers (CPs). It is employed in the synthesis of:
  • Expanding and shrinking cadmium-based pillared layer coordination polymers showing selective guest adsorption.
  • Dinuclear zinc complex that exhibits photocontrolled fluorescence.
  • Platinum-based 3-D tetragonal prisms via multicomponent coordination-driven self-assembly.
