The use of lanthanide-based poly-nuclear complexes as molecular precursor for the design of extended molecular frameworks is still an innovative synthesis strategy. Oxo-hydroxo poly-nuclear complexes are generally obtained by controlling pH conditions during reaction process. After a short description of the lanthanide hydrolysis phenomenon and a non-exhaustive inventory of existing complexes with increasing nuclearity, the present review focuses on lanthanide-based hexa-nuclear oxo-hydroxo complexes. Their syntheses and crystal structures are described and their interest as building blocks for the design of new coordination compounds with unprecedented physical properties is highlighted.
