Dual-function Cd(II) coordination complexes as sensors for efficient detection of Zn2+ and Tb3+ ions

Effects of solvents and metal ions on the synthesis, structural diversity and magnetic properties of the 5′-nitro-[1,1′:3′,1′′-terphenyl]-3,3′′,5,5′′-tetracarboxylic acid ligand and a highly sensitive sensor for Fe3+

“…As we know many complexes of aromatic carboxylic acids have been reported. 29,30 However, a few reports used nitrodecorated aromatic polycarboxylate ligands.…”
