“…The rational design and synthesis of novel, discrete and polymeric metal-organic hybrid frameworks have remained an important research focus in recent years [1][2][3], due to their fascinating coordination architectures and their potential applications in various fields, including gas storage, conductivity, catalysis, photochemistry, fluorescence, magnetism, corrosion inhibitions and antitumor activity [4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. The synthesis of such coordination polymers (CPs) is highly influenced by numerous factors such as the solvent system, temperature, counter ions with different bulk or coordination abilities, template, metal/ligand ratio and even pH [11][12].…”
