Abstract: The synthesis of new coordination polymers based on flexible ligands is a challenging task. The use of two types of ligands is a possible approach to obtain crystalline compounds. The combination of flexibility and rigidity can lead to unusual topologies and properties. We are managed to obtain two new metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) based on flexible 1,3-bis(2-methylimidazolyl)propane and rigid isophtalic (1,3-benzenedicarboxylic) acid: [Zn2(iph)2(bmip)2] (1) and [Zn4(iph)4(bmip)3]·2DMF·3.5H2O (2). Structure of both compounds were determined by single-crystal X-ray analysis. Compound 1 is 3-fold interpenetrating 3D framework with dmp topology. Compound 2 is 2-fold interconnecting 3D framework with rare topology, described as (4,6)-c net. Compound 2 contains guest DMF and water molecules. Interestingly, compound 2 easily loses guest molecules in air and undergoes to another crystalline compound 2a. The photoluminescence at room temperature of the compounds 1 and 2a were investigated in the solid state. Quantum yields (QY) of luminescence for 1 and 2a are 30.5% and 39.8%, respectively. The short decay times are allowed to attribute the emission to fluorescence characteristic for intraligand transitions.
