A new inorganic-organic hybrid solid, [Zn(dap)2 ][AlB5 O10 ], combining the structural features of 3D open-framework inorganic solids and 2D metal-organic coordination polymers has been synthesized under solvothermal conditions. The compound displays extensive luminescence and moderate second-harmonic-generation efficiency.
Keywords: aluminoborates; coordination polymers; open frameworks; organic-inorganic hybrid composites; supramolecular templates.
