Abstract During the past two decades, the search of strategies to introduce polyoxometalate (POM) clusters as secondary building units (SBUs) to construct porous extended POM-organic frameworks (POMOFs) and discrete POM-organic polyhedra (POMOPs) have attracted sustained interests because such materials not only integrate the advantages of both POMs and framework/polyhedra structures, but also exhibit good prospects in photo-/electro-catalysis, separation, molecular recognition, host-guest chemistry and so on. In this review, the recent advancements of POMOFs and POMOPs, including their assembly methodologies, classification and related applications are summarized. Moreover, the current challenges in the design and fabrication of POMOFs and POMOPs as well as the great potential in these two areas are also discussed.
