Abstract

Hydrothermal reactions of InCl~3~ with 1,3,5‐benzenetricarboxylic acid (H~3~BTC) or pyromellitic dianhydride produced [In~2~(BTC)~2~(H~2~O)~2~]~n~·2__n__H~2~O (1) and [In~2~(H~2~BTEC)~2~(OH)~2~]~n~·2__n__H~2~O (2), respectively (H~4~BTEC = 1,2,4,5‐benzenetetracarboxylic acid). The structure of 1 is a 2D double‐layer network, while that of 2 is a 3D framework constructed from chains of corner‐linked octahedra. Intense greenish‐blue emissions at 494 nm (λ~ex~ = 325 nm) for 1 and 489 nm (λ~ex~ = 337 nm) for 2 were observed in the solid state. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2005)
