Abstract
In
this paper, a novel three-dimensional (3D) porous lanthanide–organic
framework, Eu<sub>2</sub>(μ<sub>4</sub>-pmdc)<sub>2</sub>(OH)<sub>2</sub>·3H<sub>2</sub>O (<b>1</b>), which is stable up
to 400 °C, has been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized.
It shows intriguing single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation
and reversible dehydration/rehydration phenomenon upon removal and
rebinding of the lattice water molecules, which is supported by single-crystal
X-ray diffraction, powder X-ray diffraction, and photoluminescence
data
