Three supramolecular coordination polymers, namely [Ni(L1)(DCTP)(H2O)]n (1), [Cu(L2)(DCTP)]n (2), [Co(L3)(DCTP)]n (3) (L1 = 1,5-bis(5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole)pentane, L2 = 1,4-bis(5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole)butane, L3 = 1,4-bis(benzimidazole)-2-butylene) have been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by single crystal X-ray structure determination, FT-IR, elemental analysis, X-ray powder diffraction (XPD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). CP 1 exhibits 2D 63 honeycombed network structure, which is further extended into a 3D Moganite (mog) supramolecular framework by classical O–H⋯O hydrogen-bonding interaction. CPs 2–3 present 2D (4,4) layers, and 3D supramolecular frameworks that are formed by π–π stacking interactions. Furthermore, the catalytic activities of CPs 1–3 for the degradation of methyl orange in a Fenton-like process has been investigated, and CPs 1–3 show strong photoluminescence properties at room temperature in solid state.
