Three new complexes, namely [Zn(mbix)(SO4)]center dot CH3OH (1), Cd(mbix)(2)(NO3)(2) (2) and [Cd(mbix)(2)(H2O)(2)]center dot(NO3)(2) (3), have been obtained by reactions of flexible bidentate ligand 1,3-bis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene (mbix) with corresponding zinc(II) and cadmium(II) salts. The structures of these complexes have been determined by the X-ray single crystal diffraction analysis. Complex 1 features a 2D wavy network with (4,4) topology. Complex 2 has a 2D grid network with left- and right-handed helical chains, while complex 3 exhibits twofold parallel interpenetration structure. The differences of three complexes demonstrate that the coordination geometry of metal ions and the ratio of reactants have a great impact on the structure of the supramolecular architectures. The luminescent properties of three complexes are also investigated.
