A novel Zr-substituted polyoxometalate（POM） H2K3[Na6（H2O）9][Zr3Na3O3（H2O）3-（GeW9O（34））2]·12H2O（1） has been made under hydrothermal conditions. 1 was characterized by infrared spectrum, thermogravimetric analysis, powder X-ray diffraction and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystal data are： H（50）O（95）Na9K3Ge2Zr3W（1）8, hexagonal space group P63/mmc, a = 15.2251（6）, b = 15.2251（6）, c = 25.035（2） , V = 5025.7（6） 3, Z = 2, Dc = 3.716 mg/m3, μ = 21.648 mm（-1）, F（000） = 4726, the final R = 0.0259 and w R = 0.0647 for 1487 observed reflections with I 2σ（I）. Single-crystal X-ray structure analysis reveals that 1 exhibits a 3-dimensional framework structure based on Zr3Na3-substituted polyanions [Zr3Na3O3（H2O）3（GeW9O（34））2]（11-） and [Na6（H2O）9]（6＋） clusters building blocks. UV-Vis spectrum indicates that 1 is a wide-gap semiconductor. In addition, the proton-conducting property of 1 was also investigated.

A novel three-dimensional（3-D） compound [Cd4（SeO3）2Cl4（H2O）]n（1） was prepared from a hydrothermal reaction and structurally characterized.Compound 1 crystallizes in the space group Fmmm of the orthorhombic system with eight formula units in a cell：a = 15.5165（4）,b = 17.5090（9）,c = 7.3318（5） ,V = 1991.9（2） 3,Cd4Cl4H2O7Se2,Mr = 863.38,Dc = 5.758 g/cm3,S = 1.075,μ（MoKα） = 16.820 mm-1,F（000） = 3088,R = 0.0427 and wR = 0.1220.Compound 1 features a 3-D structure with the cadmium atoms having two different coordination environments,i.e.,six-and eight-coordination geometries.Two different chain-like structures of cadmium-oxo polyhedra are interconnect to each other to give a 2-D layer of [Cd4（SeO3）2（H2O）]n4n＋.Between the [Cd4（SeO3）2（H2O）]n4n＋ layers is a novel chloride layer.A 3-D framework is constructed from these [Cd4（SeO3）2（H2O）]n4n＋ layers linked by the chloride layers.

A new one-dimensional （1-D） compound [Sm（PCA）3（H2O）2]n·6nH2O （1, HPCA=pyrazinecarboxylic acid） has been synthesized via hydrothermal reaction and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compound 1 crystallizes in the Pbca space group of orthorhombic system with a=19.465（3）, b=12.034（4）, c=19.842（4） , V=4648（2）3, C15H25N6O14Sm, Mr=663.76, Dc=1.897 g/cm3, S=1.023, μ（MoKα）=2.610 mm-1, F（000）=2648, R=0.0239 and wR=0.0616. Compound 1 is characteristic of an infinite 1-D chain-like structure with the samarium atoms locating at an environment of a monocapped square antiprism. The [Sm（PCA）3（H2O）2]n chains and the lattice water molecules interconnect together through π-π interactions and hydrogen bonding interactions to yield a 3-D supramolecular framework. Photoluminescent investigation reveals that the title compound displays an emission in the greenish blue region.

Novel Lanthanide Cluster Polymers Based on Cubane-like [Ln4(OH)4]^8＋ Clusters and Sulfate Anions

Two lanthanide-oxo-cluster polymers were synthesized by hydrothermal reaction using Ln_2O_3 as initial lanthanide materials：[Ln_4（SO_4）_4（OH）_4（H_2O）_7]·_4H_2O（Ln = Er 1,Ho 2）,and characterized by PXRD,IR spectra,X-ray single-crystal diffraction,2D IR correlation spectra and UV-visible absorption spectra.Single-crystal X-ray analyses reveal that compounds 1 and 2 are isostructural,and they are both crystallized in the orthorhombic system Pccn space group.Compound 1 is a 3D lanthanide cluster polymer based on tetranuclear cubane-like [Er_4（μ_3-OH）_4]^8＋ cations and SO_4^2- anions.The overall structure of 1 can be assigned to 6-connected pcu-type topology with the point symbol of（4^12.6^3）.
