Abstract Two metallo-supramolecular polymers {[Zn2(L)4(DMF)2]·0.8DMF}n (1) and {[Mn2L2(DMSO)4]·2DMSO}n (2) (H2L = bis(p-carboxyphenyl)diphenylsilane) have been synthetized by the reaction of Zn(NO3)2·6H2O and Mn(NO3)2·4H2O respectively, with the above mentioned acid as ligand under solvothermal conditions. Both coordination polymers were structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, FTIR and UV–Vis spectroscopy. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals dinuclear Zn(II) and Mn(II) nodes bridged by mono or double deprotonated ligand molecules coordinated in syn-syn bidentate mode. Thermal and moisture stability and photophysical properties of the resulting coordination polymers were studied and correlated with their structure.
