Abstract

The optical properties of [Zn(2)(NDC)(2)(DPNI)](0/-/2-) (NDC = 2,7-naphthalene dicarboxylate, DPNI = N,N'-di(4-pyridyl)-1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxydiimide), a redox-active metal-organic framework, have been examined using a simple and robust in situ solid state UV-Vis-NIR spectroelectrochemical technique.
