Two polyoxometalate (POM) supramolecular assemblies based on W18 clusters and the rigid organic trans-1,2-di-(4-pyridyl)-ethylen (bpe) have been synthesized and fully characterized, namely (H2bpe)3.5H2[SbW18O60]·5H2O (1), and (H2bpe)5[Ni4(AsW9O34)2(H2O)2]·3H2O (2). Compounds 1–2 are formed from organic bpe cations and different polytungstate anions: pseudo-Dawson-type [SbW18O60]9− in 1 and sandwich-type [Ni4(H2O)2(AsW9O34)2]10− in 2. Both of compounds 1–2 crystallize in a low-symmetrical space group of P-1 and consist of a complicated supramolecular network based on non-covalent intermolecular weak interactions, including hydrogen bonding and π···π stacking. The multipoint hydrogen bonding interactions constitute the structural feature in two supramolecular frameworks. The UV–vis, fluorescence and electrochemistry properties are also studied.
