| Summary: | Two novel three-dimensional Zn-MOFs (zinc metal-organic frameworks), Zn(5)(μ(3)-OH)(BTC)(3)(Phen)(4)·5H(2)O (denoted as HUT-11) and Zn(4)(μ(4)-O)(BTC)(2)(Phen)(2)·4H(2)O (denoted as HUT-12), have been synthesized by metal-ligand-directed assembly under hydrothermal conditions. Here, BTC and Phen are denoted as 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate and phenanthroline. HUT-11 contains two kinds of secondary building units (SBUs), Zn(3)(μ(3)-OH)(COO)(5) clusters and Zn(2)(COO)(4) clusters. This material exhibits a new three-dimensional (3,4,5)-connected topology with the Schläfli symbol (4·6·8)(2)(4·8(2))(4·6(4)·8(5))(4(2)·6(2)·8(2)). Two perpendicular planes cross at five coordinated Zn1-Zn3-Zn5 nodes, giving a new three-dimensional network. HUT-12 is composed of Zn(4)(μ(4)-O)(COO)(6) clusters as the secondary building units and displays a two-dimensional (3,6)-connected TiS(2) related net topology with the Schläfli symbol (4(2)·6)(4(4)·6(2)·8(8)·10). Both MOFs show blue light emission and a high thermal stability above 673 K.
