Four metal–organic frameworks, namely, [Cd2(μ2-HPhIDC)2(phen)2] (H3PhIDC = 2-phenyl-1H-imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) (1), [Cd2(μ2-HPhIDC)2(2,2′-bipy)2] (2,2′-bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine) (2), [Pb3(μ4-PhIDC)2(H2O)] (3) and [Sr(μ2-H2PhIDC)2(H2O)4]·2H2O (4) have been synthesized under hydro(solvo)thermal conditions, and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Both 1 and 2 are one-dimensional (1-D) infinite chains. Compound 3 features a two-dimensional (2-D) framework, in which Pb2+ ions are bridged by μ4-PhIDC3− ligands. Compound 4 possesses a three-dimensional (3-D) framework with a uninodal 4-connected net. The thermal and photoluminescence properties of polymers 1–4 have been investigated as well.
