Abstract: The complex [Zn(CH3OH)4(MCA)2] (3-hydroxy-2-methylquinoline-4-carboxylic acid) has been synthesized through hydrothermal reactions and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Its solid-state photoluminescence spectrum shows an emission in the blue region, which is assigned to ligand-to-metal charge transfer on the basis of time-dependent density functional theory calculations. Solid-state diffuse reflectance measurements show the existence of a narrow optical band gap of 1.73 eV.
