The structures of 1 and 2 were characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction analysis.In complex 1, six cobalt atoms were connected by oxygen atoms to form a defect dicubane structure. The defect dicubane structures were further linked by Co(4,4?-BPy) units to generate a3-D network structure. Compound 2 displays a 2-D chain structure. The photoluminescent property of complex 2 is investigated. The results show the exclusive luminescence emission bands being originated from intraligand π-π* transitions.
