Selective and reversible adsorption of cationic dyes by mixed ligand Zn(ii) coordination polymers synthesized by reactant ratio modulation

2D/3D luminescent Zn(ii)-based coordination polymers CP1 and CP2 have been synthesized by reactant ratio modulation. Photoluminescence studies of both CPs; selective and reversible adsorption/separation of cationic dyes by CP1 in the aqueous medium has been investigated.

Selective high adsorption capacity for Congo red dye of a new 3D supramolecular complex and its magnetic hybrid

A new pentacoordinated Cd(ii)-CP based on a flexible nitrogen donor ligand (L) and a corresponding core–shell magnetic Fe₃O₄@SiO₂-NH₂@Cd(ii)-CP hybrid have been synthesized by ultrasonic irradiation. The products can be proposed as good recyclable adsorbents for the selective adsorption of Congo red dye.

Metal–organic frameworks for radionuclide sequestration from aqueous solution: a brief overview and outlook
