Abstract: | To investigate the effect of organic anions on coordination frameworks, the complexes [Cd(2, 6‐pydc)(bibix)2(H2O)2]n ( 1 ) and {[Cd4(2, 5‐pydc)4(bibix)4(H2O)4](H2O)8}n ( 2 ) were isolated by the reactions of 1‐{4‐[(1H‐benzoimidazol‐1‐yl)methyl]benzyl}‐1H‐benzoimidazole (bibix) and two distinct pyridyl‐dicarboxylates as organic anions with d10 metal salts. In the resulting structures, bibix adopts different coordination modes affected by the aromatic anions, which have distinct geometric structure and bonding modes. Thus, complex 1 has a 1D chain structure, whereas complex 2 has a 2D architecture. Both complexes 1 and 2 have a strong fluorescence emission, which may be tentatively assigned to metal‐perturbed intraligand interactions. |
