•Two porous frameworks were obtained via the “pillaring” strategy.•The pillared frameworks were based on zinc and cadmic (6,3)-layers.•Zn and Cd lead to bilayers and 3-D open framework with hms topology, respectively.
The (6,3)-layers of transition metals and 3,5-pyridinecarboxylate (3,5-PDC) containing terminal coordinated molecules offer a great potential for obtained porous frameworks via the “pillaring” approach. In this work, we have successfully obtained two porous frameworks based on the zinc and cadmic (6,3)-layers (compounds 1 and 2, respectively) pillared by 4,4′-pyridine (bipy). Interestingly, different metal centers of Zn(II) and Cd(II) in the (6,3)-layers lead to the pillared frameworks into bilayers with {63}{66} topology (compound 3) and 3-D open framework with {63}{69·8} hms topology (compound 4), respectively. It is believed that this work deserves further focus to enrich the design strategy of novel porous crystalline metal-organic frameworks (MOFs).
