A new cooper benzenedicarboxylate metal-organic coordination polymer,[Cu（μH2O）（BDC）]n·nDMF（1,H2BDC = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate acid,DMF = N,N＇-dimethylfor-mamide）,has been successfully synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by IR spectroscopy,elemental analysis,thermogravimetric analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.This complex crystallizes in triclinic,space group P1 with a = 6.605,b = 10.44780（10）,c = 11.0881（6） ,α = 62.064（11）,β = 73.410（15）,γ = 78.404（16）°,C11H13CuNO6,Mr = 318.76,V = 645.79（8） 3,Z = 2,Dc = 1.639 g/cm3,F（000） = 326,μ = 1.712 mm-1,the final R = 0.0362 and wR = 0.1330 for 2055 observed reflections with I 〉 2σ（I）.The title compound contains infinite inorganic chains constructed by Cu oxygen octahedra by sharing corners and edges.Each chain is connected by BDC linkers to four other chains to form a three-dimensional framework with irregular rhombic channels where the DMF molecules are encapsulated.
A 3D coordination polymer [Zn2（hqc）2（H2O）]n has been obtained from the reaction of 4-hydroxyquinoline-2-carboxylic acid （H2hqc） with zinc（II） salt under hydrothermal condition, and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, TGA, PXRD and X-ray single-crystal diffraction. The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/c with a = 14.305（2）, b = 9.132（2）, c = 15.356（2）, β = 103.586（7）o, V = 1949.9（4）3, Z = 4, Dc = 1.782 g/cm3, μ = 2.508 mm-1, Mr = 523.06, F（000） = 1048, T = 293（2） K, λ（MoKα） = 0.71073, S = 1.008, the final R = 0.0329 and wR = 0.0745 for 3849 observed reflections （I 〉 2σ（I））. The title complex features a 3D framework via Zn（2） linking the 1D {Zn1（hqc）2}n chains. Thermogravimetric analysis shows that its framework is highly thermally stable up to 556 ℃ in the solid state.
