A new coordination polymer [Zn(tdc)(bimb)] n ( 1 ) (H 2 tdc = 3,4‐thiophenedicarboxylic acid, bimb = 1,4‐bis(imidazol‐1ˊ‐yl)butane) has been synthesized under hydrothermal condition. X‐ray single‐crystal diffraction determination reveals that 1 crystallizes in the space group P 2 1 2 1 2 1 of orthorhombic crystal system: a = 10.517(2), b = 10.889(2), c = 15.206(3) Å. This compound features a 3D network which can be rationalized as a 4‐connected diamondoid net. Moreover, thermal and photoluminescent properties for 1 have also been investigated.
