Abstract

Reactions of the tripodal bridging ligand 5-(4-carboxy–phenoxy)-isophthalic acid (abbreviated as H 3cpia) with lanthanide salts lead to the formation of a family of different coordination polymers, that is, [ Ln(cpia)(H 2O) 2] n · nH 2O ( Ln=Ce ( 1), Pr ( 2), Nd ( 3), Sm ( 4), Eu ( 5), Gd ( 6), Dy ( 7), Er ( 8), Tm ( 9) and Y ( 10)) in the presence of formic acid or diethylamine, which are characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectrum, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), XRPD spectrum and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compounds 1– 10 are isostructural and exhibit three-dimensional microporous frameworks. Furthermore, the photoluminescent properties of 4, 5 and 7 have been studied in detail.
