Two new heterometallic uranyl-organic frameworks (UOFs), [Cd(phen) 2 (H 2 O) 2 ][(UO 2 ) 2 (BDC) 3 ]·2H 2 O ( 1 ) and [Ni(phen) 3 ][(UO 2 ) 2 (BDC) 3 ]·2H 2 O ( 2 ), were obtained under hydrothermal conditions. Both crystal structures were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses and the results indicate that both complexes feature a similar 2D honeycomb framework that is connected by rigid benzenedicarboxylate (BDC) ligands and uranyl units. BDC works as a linker to bridge neighboring UO 22+  units, where UO 22+  is tris-chelated. Different guest molecules guided the stacking of 2D layers and lead into their 3D supramolecular crystal structures with different space groups. As a result,  1  crystallized in a polar space group  Cc,  whereas  2  belongs to a chiral space group  P 6 1 22. Thermogravimetric measurements were performed to study their thermal stability. UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy measurements indicate an experimental optical bandgap of 3.87 eV and 3.63 eV, respectively, for  1  and  2 . Luminescent studies of both samples show strong green light emissions.
