A theoretical insight on the rigid hydrogen-bonded network in the solid state structure of two zinc(<scp>ii</scp>) complexes and their strong fluorescence behaviors

Abstract

A reduced Schiff base used as a fluorescence chemo-sensor for selective detection of zinc(<sc>ii</sc>). Strong fluorescence behaviors of two zinc(<sc>ii</sc>) complexes are correlated with the presence of a rigid hydrogen-bonded network in their solid state structure.
