Recently, a variety of coordination polymers based on metalligand coordinative covalent bonding have received considerable attractions due to their novel topology and interesting functions.1-6 In particular, much attention has been paid to porous high-dimensional coordination polymers, because of their potential zeolite-like applications.7-10 For the preparation of this type of polymers, 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (btcH3) is widely employed because of its potential role as a multidimensional ligand.11-13 For instance, Yaghi and co-workers reported the hydrothermal reaction between metal(II) acetate tetrahydrate, [M(OAc)2,4H2 M =Co, Ni, or Zn], and btcH3 to give 3-D coordination poly mers of the type M3(btc)2T2H2.13
