A layered coordination polymer (CP) with the fine-tuned alignment of four diolefinic ligands has been designed by shifting the coordination site of the ligand. The trimeric and tetrameric cyclobutane derivatives were reversely achieved by the photoinitiated [2+2] cycloaddition of the CP due to the favorable Schmidt's distance. More interestingly, a dynamic fluorescence shift was observed during the photo-oligomerization and heat-cycloreversion of the CP system.
