Synthesis, crystal structure, luminescent properties and antibacterial activities of zinc complexes with bipyridyl and salicylate ligands

摘要

Graphical abstractTwo new zinc (II) complexes (1,2) with bipyridyl and salicylate ligands have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. Crystal structures were determined by X-ray structural analysis, complex1is 1-D coordination polymer, while2is dinuclear 0-D structure. Additionally, the photoluminescent properties and antibacterial activity of both complexes were investigated.Display OmittedHighlights?Two novel Zn(II) complexes from hydrothermal synthesis with full characterization.?One complex is a 1-D chain network.?Antibacterial activity and photoluminescence were investigated.?Both complexes show high selectivity and sensitivity for Cu(II) ion detection.展开▼
