Experimental section:
Materials. All the reagents and solvents for synthesis were purchased from commercial sources and
used as supplied without further purification. Zn(NO3)2∙6H2O, 1,2,4,5,- Tetrakis (4-carboxyphenyl)
benzene (H4tcpb), Pd((NO3)2∙xH2O and all the nitro aromatic compounds and metal salts were
obtained from the Sigma-Aldrich Chemical Co. India.
Caution!: Picric acid is highly explosive and should be handled carefully and in small amounts.
Synthesis of ({[Zn(C34H18O8)0.5(C20N2H16)0.5]∙0.5(C20N2H16).2H2O]}n (1): 1,4-bis [2-(4-
pyridyl)ethenyl] benzene (bpeb) was synthesized by literature method.1 A mixture containing
Zn(NO3)2∙6H2O (41.4 mg, 0.14 mmol), 1,2,4,5-tcpb (40 mg, 0.07 mmol), bpeb (40.4 mg, 0.14 mmol)
dissolved in H2O (3 ml), DMF (3 ml), DMSO (2 ml) were placed in 15 ml Pressure tube and then 10
drops of NaOH (0.1 M) solution was added. The tube was properly sealed and kept at 150˚C for 12 h.
After cooling down the tube to room temperature, yellow colored X-ray quality crystals of compound
1 were obtained at the bottom of the tube (Yield = 20% based on metal). Elemental analysis: Anal.

Fluorescence experiments: In typical experimental setup, 1mg of compound 1 was dispersed in 1 ml
of DMF. In a 1 cm quartz cuvette, 3 mL solution of compound 1 in DMF was placed and the
fluorescence response upon excitation at 340 nm was measured in-situ after incremental addition of
freshly prepared analyte solutions in the range of 350-600 nm, while keeping 2 nm slit width for both
source and detector. To maintain homogeneity, solution was stirred at constant rate during
experiment.
Formula for calculating the percentage of Picric acid fluorescence intensity quenching:
(Io-I)/Io x 100%
Where, Io = initial fluorescence intensity,
I = intensity of 1 containing PA solution.

Stern-Volmer equation:
I0/I = KSV[A] + 1
Where, I0 = fluorescent intensity of 1 before the addition of the analyte
I = fluorescent intensity after the addition of the respective analyte
KSV = Stern-Volmer constant
[A] = molar concentration of the analyte (M-1
).
For Pd2+
:

, in which I0 and I
denote the intensity of the fluorescence signal of the sensing material in the absence and presence of
the analyte respectively. I0/I = KSV [Pd2+
] + 1 (Correlation coefficient, R2 = 0.98587).

The detection limit was calculated based on the fluorescence titration. The emission spectrum of
compound 1 was recorded by adding aliquots of Pd2+
solution in minimum concentrations and the
fluorescence intensity as a function of Pd2+
ions added was then plotted. So the detection limit was
calculated with the following equation: (Reference: (a) M. Kumar, N. Kumar and V. Bhalla, RSC
Adv., 2013, 3, 1097; (b) G. L. Long and J. D. Winefordner., Anal. Chem., 1983, 55, 712A, (c) B. Gole,
A. K. Bar and P. S. Mukherjee., Chem. Eur. J. 2014, 20, 2276; (d) B. Gole, A. K. Bar and P. S.
Mukherjee., Chem. Eur. J. 2014, 20, 13321).
Detection limit (DL) = Concentration of compound x Equiv. of Titrant at which change observed
Thus,
DL = 0.0015 x 2.2 x 10-4
= 3.3 x 10-7
mol = 0.03 ppm
Note: Although there is one more equation to determine the detection limit (i.e. Limit of Detection
(LOD) = 3Sigma/slope), but generally it has been used in the case of “enhancement in fluorescence
intensity”( References: (a) Chem. Commun., 2013, 49, 822. (b) RSC Adv., 2014, 4, 16104. (c)
Chem. Commun., 2011, 47, 8656). In this case above given equation was used to calculate detection
limit as the sensing occurs via fluoresce intensity quenching.
X-ray Single-Crystal structure Determination: Single crystal data for compound 1 was collected
on a Bruker APEX II diffractometer equipped with a graphite monochromator and Mo-Kα (λ=
0.71073 Å, 296 K) radiation. Data collection was performed using φ and ω scan. The structure was
solved using direct method followed by full matrix least square refinements against F2 (all data HKLF
4 format) using SHELXTL. Subsequent difference Fourier synthesis and least-square refinement
revealed the positions of the remaining nonhydrogen atoms. Determinations of the crystal system,
orientation matrix, and cell dimensions were performed according to the established procedures.
Lorentz polarization and multi-scan absorption correction were applied. Non-hydrogen atoms were
refined with independent anisotropic displacement parameters and hydrogen atoms were placed
geometrically and refined using the riding model. All calculations were carried out using SHELXL
97,2 PLATON 99,
3 and WinGXsystemVer-1.64.
4 During the final stages of refinement, some Q peaks
having high electron densities were found in compound 1 which probably correspond to highly
disordered solvent water molecules and are removed by SQUEEZE 4 program. From the TG analysis,
we have calculated that in compound 1 two guest water molecules are present and hence those are
included in the molecular formula. Data collection and structure refinement parameters and
crystallographic data for compound 1 is given in Table S1. Selected bond lengths and bond angles are
given in Table S2.

Thermal and PXRD Analysis:
Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) of compound 1 shows a first step weight loss of 5% in the range
of 90-130˚C could be due to the loss of guest H2O molecules and the de-solvated framework was
found to be stable up to 250˚C (Fig. S7). The powder XRD pattern of 1 is in very good
correspondence with the simulated pattern of the single crystal, indicating the phase purity of bulk
sample (Fig. S8).
