In this study,a chiral bridging ligand L-H2 with C2 symmetry was firstly synthesized using L-phenylalanine methyl ester and naphthalene-1,5-disulfonyl chloride as the starting reactants.A lu-minescent chiral porous complex 1 was then prepared through the solvothermal reaction with the ob-tained chiral ligand and zinc ions.Its crystal structure was characterized by single-crystal X-ray dif-fraction(XRD),Fourier transform infrared spectrometer(FTIR),and fluorescence spectroscopy.En-antiosorption experiment revealed that chiral complex 1 can effectively resolve racemic styrene oxide,yielding chiral styrene oxide with a value of 66%.Fluorescence sensing experiment proved that chiral complex 1 can effectively distinguish the two enantiomers of styrene oxide,which is evident by the fact that its fluorescence was quenched by 60%with R-configuration enantiomer of styrene oxide.
