The hydro(solvo)thermal reaction of Cd(NO3)2·4H2O and 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid (2,6-H2ndc) together with di(3-pyridylmethyl)amine, being as structure-direct reagent, in N,N′-dimethylacetamide (DMAc)–MeOH at 120 °C afforded a cadmium–carboxylate network, which is formulated as [Cd3(2,6-ndc)3(DMAc)4] (1) by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The extended architecture of 1 suits a three-dimensional (3D) six-connected slanted 412·63-pcu framework based on trinuclear Cd3(O2C)6(DMAc)4 clusters being symmetry-related by a 2-fold rotation axis. Dye adsorption explorations for methyl blue, methyl orange (MO), methylene blue (MB), rhodamine B (RB), and methyl yellow (MY) dyes clearly indicate that 1 has exhibited dye capture behavior for methyl blue from an aqueous solution, and can selectively bind methyl blue from a MO–methyl blue mixture. In addition, the thermal stability and photoluminescence properties of the crystalline material have also been studied.
