Fresh hetero-metallic compound as luminescent sensor for detection of CS2 and inhibitory activity on children diabetes.

The combination of the dicarboxylate ligand of 2-aminoterephthalic acid (H2L), Cd(NO3)2·4H2O, and KNO3 under hydrothermal condition formed a fresh hetero-metallic coordination polymer, namely, [CdK2(L)2(H2O)4]n (1). The compound exhibited a high luminescence intensity at normal environment as well as high sensitivity and selectivity in the measurement of CS2. The effect of the fresh compound on childhood diabetes was investigated. A blood glucose monitor was utilized to assess the blood glucose level of the body after the addition of the compound. Moreover, the relative expression level of the insulin recipient on hepatocytes was assessed by real time RT-PCR.
