In FJU-32,Zn(Ⅱ) is coordinated to three μ3-OH groups forming an unprecedented 1D zigzag-like double chain,and the 1D double chains are connected to four neighbouring double chains by the cpt ligands to form an extended 3D porous coordination polymer. In FJU-33,the adjacent [Zn(atrz)] 2D layers are further connected by the cpt ligands via Zn–O coordinated bonds and neighboring interlayer hydrogen-bonding interactions to give rise to an overall 3D pillared layer structure. The neutron triazole group of the cpt ligand has weaker coordination ability than the triazolate anion of atrz ligand. Furthermore,FJU-32 and FJU-33 display high thermal stability up to 300 ℃,and the solid state fluorescence reveals that two new complexes are potential optical materials.
