Metal-organic　frameworks　(MOFs)　are　one　of　the　most　important　crystalline　porous　materials.　In　recent　years,　there　has　been　a　strong　interest　in　MOFs　based　devices　with　electrochemical　activity.　MOFs　with　redox　activity　are　the　ideal　choice　for　such　devices.　1,1＇-Ferrocene　dicarboxylic　acid　(H(2)FcDCA)　containing　ferrocene　units　is　an　ideal　ligand　for　constructing　MOFs　with　redox　activity.　However,　due　to　its　uncontrollable　coordination　mode　and　torsion　angle,　there　is　still　a　challenge　to　construct　such　materials.　In　this　paper,　two　MOFs　were　synthesized　by　the　reaction　of　functional　ligand　H(2)FcDCA　with　Cd(2+　)under　different　hydrothermal　conditions:　[Cd(FcDCA)(bpy)(H2O)]center　dot(bpy)　(1)　(bpy　=4,4＇-bipyridine)　and　[Cd-2(FcDCA)(bpy)(OX)　(H2O)(2)]center　dot　2H(2)O　(2)　(H2OX=oicalic　acid).　The　single　crystal　structure,　fluorescence　properties,　redox　activity　of　two　compounds　were　characterized　and　described.　In　compound　1,　Cd　center　was　linked　by　FcDCA　to　form　a　zigzag　chain,　and　it　was　linked　by　bpy　to　form　a　chain.　Both　chains　linked　each　other　by　sharing　the　Cd　center　to　give　birth　to　a　2D　layer　with　square　lattice　topology　(sq1).　These　layers　were　packed　in　AA　mode　along　ac　plane.　Bpy　as　guest　molecules　are　filled　in　the　channel　of　it.　By　introducing　H2OX　in　this　system　under　similar　condition,　compound　2　with　3D　framework　was　obtained.　Different　to　compound　1,　two　Cd　atoms　were　coordinated　by　OX　ligands　to　form　a　binuclear　Cd-2　unit.　The　Cd-2　units　were　connected　by　bpy　and　OX　ligands　to　form　a　3D　framework　with　typical　4-connected　diamond　topology　(dia).　Each　FcDCA　ligand　linked　two　Cd-2　units　as　functional　unit　and　pore　partition　agent.　The　whole　framework　of　compound　2　can　be　simplified　as　6-connected　sxd　topology　by　treating　three　kinds　of　ligands　FcDCA,　bpy　and　OX　as　linkers.　Both　compounds　exhibited　strong　visible　light　absorption　ability,　photocurrent　response,　and　typical　redox　properties　of　ferrocene,　which　may　be　good　candidates　for　photoelectric　catalysts.
