Two complexes {[Ni(HIPA) (2, 5-DPBI)_1.5(H₂O)]·2.25H₂O}_n (1) and [Ni(HIPA) (2, 5-DPBMI) (H₂O)]_n (2) (H₂HIPA=5-(hydroxymethyl) isophthalic acid, 2, 5-DPBI=1, 1'-(2, 5-dimethyl-1, 4-phenylene)bis(1H-imidazole), 2, 5-DPBMI=1, 1'-(2, 5-dimethyl-1, 4 -phenylene)bis(4-methyl-1H-imidazole)) were synthesized via hydrothermal method. Structural analysis reveals that Ni(Ⅱ) centers have different coordination environments in the existence of different imidazole ligands. As a result, complex 1 possesses a 5-connected framework with the topological symbol of (4².6⁶.8²), while complex 2 shows a 4-connected framework with dia net. The powder X -ray diffraction further firms that complexes 1 and 2 are very stable not only in a normal organic solvent but also in water under UV light. Moreover, the UV-Vis spectra, Mott-Schottky measurements, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) demonstrate that complex 1 and 2 are typical n-type semiconductors with low resistance in charge transportation. Finally, photocatalytic tests confirm that complexes 1 and 2 have catalytic activity for the degradation of methylene blue.
