Two polyoxometalate-pillared 3D compounds, {Cu5(2-ptz)6(H2O)4(SiW12O40)}·4H2O 1 and {Cu9(2-ptz)12(H2O)6(PMo12O40)2}·H2O 2 (2-ptz = 5-(2-pyridyl)tetrazole) have been constructed based on different polyoxometalate anions, and copper–organic coordination polymer sheets by a hydrothermal method. Magnetic investigations reveal that both 1 and 2 exhibit antiferromagnetic coupling between the CuII ions. Structural studies show the compound 1 exhibits a typical pcu-type net with the Schälfli symbol of {412·63}, and that compound 2 is a (3,4,6)-connected framework with novel {44·610·10}{63}2{65·8} topology which has not been reported to date.
