Three-dimensional terbium coordination polymers with the formulas of [Tb4(NDC)6(H2O)5]${\cdot}$2H2O (1) and [Tb2(BPDC)3(H2O)3]${\cdot}$H2O (2) (NDC = 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylate; BPDC = 2,2'-bipyridine-4,4'-dicarboxy-late) were prepared by hydrothermal reactions. Both compounds were structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction. Compound 1 has a polymeric structure that contains four distinct Tb metals. Three Tb metals have a square-antiprismatic structure, and the remaining one has a 9-coordinate, triply capped trigonal-prismatic structure. Compound 2 is also a polymer with two distinct Tb metals, both of which have a square-antiprismatic structure. The pyridine nitrogen atoms of the BPDC 2- ligand do not coordinate to the metal centers in compound 2.

Hydrothermal reactions of Ni(NO₃)₂· 6H₂O with trans-1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene (bipyen), in the presence of a linear 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid (NDCH₂) and a bent 4,4'-oxybis(benzoic acid) (OBCH₂), gave a 2-D coordination polymer [Ni(NDC)(bipyen)(H₂O)] (1) and also a 2-D coordination polymer [Ni(OBC)(bipyen)]· H₂O (2), respectively. A reversible de-coordination and re-coordination of an aqua ligand was observed for polymer 1. Polymer 2 has an undulated 2-D network based on 50-membered rectangular grids, each of which has the dimension of 13.61 × 13.17 Å.
