Abstract

AbstractThe self‐assembly of MnII ions and 1,4‐bis(2‐methyl‐imidazole‐1‐yl)benzene (bip) with two different dicarboxylate ligands, benzophenone‐4,4′‐dicarboxylic acid (H2bda) and 1,4‐naphthalenedicarboxylic acid (H2nda) via hydrothermal synthesis resulted in two interesting coordination polymers, [Mn(bda)(bip)]n (1) and [(Mn(nda)(bip)0.5(H2O)]n (2). Their structures were determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction and elemental analyses, as well as IR spectroscopy. Complex 1 exhibits an unusual polycatenated 2D+2D→3D framework. Complex 2 shows a twofold interpenetrated pcu net. In addition, the solid‐state photoluminescent properties of 1 and 2 were investigated at room temperature.
