Structural analysis suggests that the three polymers exhibit a 2D (4, 4) layer for 1 and 1D linear double chains for both 2 and 3 due to the variable binding modes and the specific spatial orientation of the Hbic^– ligand towards the different paramagnetic metal ions, which were further aggregated into different 3D supramolecular architectures by popular hydrogen‐bonding interactions. Weak and comparable antiferromagnetic couplings mediating by Hbic^– bridge are observed between the neighboring spin carriers for 2 and 3 , respectively. Additionally, complexes 1 – 3 also display different luminescence emissions at room temperature due to the ligand‐to‐metal charge transfer.
