Two new coordination polymers [Co(L)_0.5(1, 3-bib)] (1) and [Ni₂(L)(1, 4-bib)₃(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O (2), where H₄L=1, 2, 4, 5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid, 1, 3-bib=1, 3-bis((1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl) benzene, and 1, 4-bib=1, 4-bis((1H- imidazol-1-yl)methyl) benzene, were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. The structures of 1 and 2 were confirmed by elemental analysis, FTIR spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, etc. The results show that 1 and 2 are 3D network structures. The completely deprotonated L^4- ligand adopts the μ₄-к²∶к¹∶к²∶к¹ mode in 1 and the μ₂-к¹∶к⁰∶к¹∶к⁰ coordination mode in 2. Further studies showed that in the presence of H₂O₂ and visible light irradiation conditions, 1 had good photocatalytic performance for the degradation of MO (methyl orange)/MB (methylene blue) in water, and the degradation rates reached 83.2% and 84.5% at 180 min. Under the same conditions, 2 also showed good degradation of the dyes MB and RhB (rhodamine B) in aqueous solution, with 87.0% and 77.4% degradation rates at 180 min, respectively. In addition, the mechanism of photocatalytic degradation of the dye by 1 and 2 was investigated.
