In this study, a nickel-based coordination polymer, [Ni(L)(H₂O)₃]_n·nH₂O (<b>1</b>), was synthesized employing 4,4'-(1H,1'H-[2,2'-biimidazole]-1,1'-diyl)dibenzoic acid (H₂L). Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis showed that L^2- ligands connect Ni²⁺ ions into 1D Z-shaped chains via two coordination modes. The chains are further assembled into a 3D supramolecular structure through hydrogen bonding interactions. The photocatalytic test showed that complex <b>1</b> could effectively degrade the organic dye methylene blue (MB).
