Luminescent Thermochromism and White-Light Emission of a 3D [AgBr] Cluster-Based Coordination Framework with Both Adamantane-like Node and Linker.

Herein, we report a -type metal-organic hybrid network based on the [AgBr] clusters and hexamethylenetetramine molecules wherein both the inorganic nodes and organic linkers feature adamantane-like geometry with a symmetry. The silver bromine complex presents a dual emission and exhibits an interesting luminescent thermochromism behavior. Remarkably, white-light emission can be readily realized through variation of the temperature. In addition, the title compound is expected to be competent as a luminescent thermometer for temperature identification.
