Reactions of lanthanide nitrate, oxalate sodium and 2-pyridylmethylphosphonic acid (2-pmpH{sub 2}) under hydrothermal conditions result in five new lanthanide oxalatophosphonates with two types of structures. Compounds [Ln{sub 4}(ox){sub 5}(2-pmpH){sub 2}(H{sub 2}O){sub 7}].5H{sub 2}O [Ln{sup 3+}=Gd (1), Tb (2), Dy (3); ox{sup 2-}=C{sub 2}O{sub 4}{sup 2-}] exhibit a double layer structure, made up of net-like {l_brace}Ln{sub 4}(ox){sub 5}{r_brace}{sub n} layers containing Ln{sub 10}(ox){sub 10} rings which are connected by 2-pmpH{sup -}. While compounds [Ln{sub 4}(ox){sub 5}(2-pmpH){sub 2}(H{sub 2}O){sub 6}].6H{sub 2}O [Ln{sup 3+}=Ho (4), Yb (5)] display a three-dimensional framework structure in which the {l_brace}Ln{sub 4}(ox){sub 5}{r_brace}{sub n} layers are cross-linked by 2-pmpH. The solid state luminescent and magnetic properties are investigated. - Graphical abstract: Compounds [Ln{sub 4}(ox){sub 5}(2-pmpH){sub 2}(H{sub 2}O){sub 7}].5H{sub 2}O (Ln=Gd, Tb, Dy; 2-pmp=2-pyridylmethylphosphonate) and [Ln{sub 4}(ox){sub 5}(2-pmpH){sub 2}(H{sub 2}O){sub 6}].6H{sub 2}O (Ln=Ho, Yb) with 2D and 3D structures, respectively, are reported.
