Title: Crystal structures of [Gd[sub 6](O)(OH)[sub 8](NO[sub 3])[sub 6](OH[sub 2])[sub 12]]-[NO[sub 3]][sub 2][center dot]2H[sub 2]O and [NH[sub 4]][sub 2][Yb[sub 6](O)(OH)[sub 8](NO[sub 3])[sub 7](OH[sub 2])[sub 10]]-[NO[sub 3]][sub 3][center dot]H[sub 2]O

Two similar oxy-hydroxy-nitrate lanthanide(III) complexes were unexpectedly isolated from the reaction of Ln(NO[sub 3])[sub 3][center dot]5H[sub 2]O with tripropylene glycol in 3:1 CH[sub 3]CN:CH[sub 3]OH. The crystal structures of these two compounds revealed identical [Ln[sub 6](O)(OH)[sub 8]][sup 8+] central cores and are reported here.
