A series of lanthanide coordination polymers, namely, [Ln(ox)0.5(phth)(H2O)2]·0.5H2O (Ln = Tb (1), Sm (2); H2ox = oxalic acid; H2phth = 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid), [Ln(mal)0.5(phth)(H2O)2]·H2O (Ln = Eu (3), Sm (4); H2mal = maleic acid), [Pr3(mal
)(phth)3(H2O)3]·H2O (5) (H2mal = malic acid) [Eu(ad)0.5(phth)(H2O)2] (Ln = Eu (6), Sm (7); H2ad = adipic acid), [Pr2(ad)(phth)2(H2O)4] (8) have been synthesized hydrothermally from the self-assembly of the lanthanide ions (Ln3+) with different types of flexible dicarboxylate ligands and the rigid 1,2-benzenedicarboxylate ligand. All coordination polymers were characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Structural analyses reveal that the networks of all eight complexes exhibit a variety of coordination modes at the metal centers. The thermal stabilities for 1, 3, 5, 6, 8, photoluminescent properties for 1–4 and 6–7 were examined, and the results show that the complexes seem to be good candidates for novel hybrid inorganic–organic photoactive materials with excellent thermal stability.
