The rational design and synthesis of metal-organic coordination polymers basedon supramolecular chemistry and crystal engineering have attracted considerable atten-tion not only due to their intriguing varieties of topologies and structures, but also theirunique properties, such as photoluminescence, magnetism, conductivity, ion ex-change, gas adsorption/separation and. catalysis, etc.
