A　novel　zinc　metal-organic　framework　(MOF)　with　the　combination　of　5,5＇-(1,4-phenylene)bis(1H-tetrazole)　(H2BDT)　and　1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic　acid　(H3BTC)　as　the　mixed　ligands,　namely　[Me2NH2](4)Zn-2(EDT)(BTC)(2)　2DMF　(I),　has　been　solvothermally　synthesized　and　characterized.　Single-crystal　X-ray　analysis　reveals　that　the　structure　of　1　features　a　pillared-layered　three-dimensional　(3D)　anionic　framework　of　[Zn-2(BTC)(2)(BDT)](n)(4n-).　The　luminescent　property　studies　indicated　that　1　might　be　a　potential　blue-light　material.　It　was　found　that　the　introduction　of　H3BTC　could　exhibit　an　obvious　influence　on　the　luminescence　of　I,　which　can　help　us　in　better　designing　luminescent　MOF　materials.　(C)　2015　Elsevier　B.V.　All　rights　reserved.
