Iron ion is widely present in the environment and in biological systems, and are indispensable trace elements in living organisms, so development of an efficient and simple sensor for sensing Fe(III) ions has attracted much attention. Here, six heterometallic AE-Ln coordination polymers (CPs) [Ln 2  (pda) 4 (Hnda) 2 Ca 2 (H 2 O) 2 ]·MeOH (Ln = Eu ( 1 ), Tb ( 2 ); H 2 pda = 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid, H 2 nda = 2,3-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid), [Ln (pda) 2  (nda)AE 2 (HCOO)(H 2 O)] (AE = Sr, Ln = Eu ( 3 ), Tb ( 4 ); AE = Ba, Ln = Eu ( 5 ), Tb ( 6 )) with two-dimensional (2D) layer structures were synthesized by hydrothermal method. All of them were characterized by elemental analysis, XRD, IR, TG, as well as single crystal X-ray diffraction. They all show infinite 2D network structure, where complexes  1  and  2  are triclinic with space group ofP    1  ¯, while  3 - 6  belong to the monoclinic system, space group  P 2 1/ n  . The solid-state fluorescence lifetimes of complexes  1 ,  3  and  5  are τ obs1  = 1930.94, 2049.48 and 2,413.04 µs, respectively, and the quantum yields  Ф  total  are 63.01, 60.61, 87.39%, respectively, which are higher than those of complexes  2 ,  4  and  6 . Complexes  1 - 6  all exhibited efficient fluorescence quenching response to Fe 3+  ions in water, and were not interfered by the following metal ions: Cu 2+ , Cd 2+ , Mg 2+ , Ni 2+ , Co 2+ , Ca 2+ , Ba 2+ , Sr 2+ , Li + , Na + , K + , Al 3+ , Fe 2+ , Pb 2+ , Cr 3+ , Mn 2+  and Zn 2+ . The quenching coefficient  K  SV  for complexes  1-6  is 1.41 × 10 5  M −1 , 7.10 × 10 4  M −1 , 1.70 × 10 5  M −1 , 1.57 × 10 5  M −1 , 9.37 × 10 4  M −1 , 1.27 × 10 5  M −1 , respectively. The fluorescence quenching mechanism of these complexes towards Fe 3+  ions was also investigated. It is possible that the weak interaction formed between the complexes and the Fe 3+  ions reduce the energy transfer from the ligand to the Ln 3+  ion, producing the emission burst effect. This suggests that complexes  1 - 6  can be candidate for efficient luminescent sensor of Fe 3+ .
