A series of three-dimensional (3D) novel coordination polymers M(bpdc)1.5(H2O)·0.5DMF (M = Tb (1), Ho (2), Er(3), or Y (4)) have been synthesized by reaction of the rare earth ions (M3+) with 4,4'-biphenyldicarboxylic acid(H2bpdc) in a mixed solution of DMF and C2H5OH. They possess the same 3D architectures and crystallize inmonoclinic space group C2/c. Two seven-coordinated metal centers and four dimonodentate bpdc groups constructa paddle-wheel building block. These building blocks connect with two carboxyl groups to lead to a one-dimensionalinorganic chain, ---M-O-C-O-M---, along the [001] direction. The inorganic chains are linked with two biphenylgroups to form 25.15 Å × 17.09 Å rhombic channels along the c axis without interpenetration. These complexesexhibit strong fluorescence in the visible region, and complex 3 shows Er3+ characteristic emission in the range of1450-1650 nm at room temperature. These complexes could be anticipated as potential fluorescent probes andan IR-emitter, respectively.
