An unprecedented organic–inorganic hybrid material with an I3O3 framework based on cadmium hydroxide and in situ generated 1H-tetrazolate-5-acetic acid

Abstract

Herein, we report a novel high-dimensional I³O³ organic–inorganic hybrid framework, namely [Cd₃(OH)₂(tza)₂]_n (1) (H₂tza = 1H-tetrazolate-5-acetic acid), where a rare pure ths inorganic connectivity of Cd–O_hydroxyl is observed. Meanwhile, 1 displays blue emission and high thermal stability up to 370 °C.
