A highly selective and sensitive Zn(ii) coordination polymer luminescent sensor for Al3+and NACs in the aqueous phase

A novel coordination polymer Zn(DMA)(TBA) (1) (H₂TBA = 4-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-benzoic acid) features a unique two-dimensional (2D) network structure, exhibiting excellent luminescence and good stability in both water and other organic solvents.
