Abstract
Two layer-like coordination polymers, {[Cd(Bpyen)0.5(m-BDC)(H2O)Br]·4H2O}(1) and {[Cd(Bpyen)0.5(o-BDC)Br]·H2O}(2), have been solvothermally synthesized and structurally characterized. The two compounds own common rapid photochromic response but different decolorization behaviors. The photoproduct of compound 2 is more stable in air. The relationship between structure and photoresponsive behavior has been studied in detail.
