A new mixed metal–organic framework [Zn0.5 Cd0.5 (NH2BDC) (4-bpmbp)].2DMF (NH2BDC
= 2-amino terephthalate; 4-bpmbp = N4, N4'-bis (pyridine-4-ylmethylene)-biphenyl-4,4'-
diamine DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide) (Zn-Cd-MOF) has been synthesized under
solvothermal conditions using Cd2+ and Zn2+ salt, NH2BDC as a rigid ligand and 4-bpmbp as
pillar ligand. The material was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), powder Xray diffraction (PXRD), and inductively coupled plasma (ICP) techniques. Furthermore, the
catalytic behavior of Zn-Cd-MOF toward the Knoevenagel condensation reaction was
investigated and good catalytic capability was achieved
