A pillar-layer MOFs Cd(5-aip)L·3DMA (1) has been obtained under solvothermal conditions. 1 possesses non-interpenetrating pillar-layer framework with 1D rectangular-shape channels. The experimental results show that the luminescent intensity of 1 is highly dependent on metal ions and small solvent molecules, particularly Ni2+/Cd2+ ions and acetone.
