Reaction of ruthenium (III) chloride, 2,2′−bipyridine−4,4′−dicarboxylic acid (bpc =2,2′−bipyridine−4,4′−dicarboxylic acid), and 3d metal salts in basic aqueous solution leads to the formation of three 1D coordination polymers . The crystal structures of these polymers contain zigzag chains of [Ru(bpc)<sub>3</sub>]<sup>-</sup> complex ions linked by 3d metal ions. The compounds were characterized by IR spectroscopy, thermoanaylsis, fluorescence spectroscopy, and X−ray diffraction analysis. Their photocatalytic properties on reducing carbon dioxide were also studied.
