Anewtwo dimensional coordination polymer of calcium-cesiumbenzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate (BTC)was obtained from aqueous solution. Structure was composed of zigzag chains constructed with Ca2+ and Cs+ ions with BTC. [CaCs(BTC)(OH2)9] crystallizes in monoclinic space group P 1 21/c 1 with a = 7.105(6) Å, b = 22.405(20) Å, c = 12.032(0)Å, V = 1911.9 (30) Å3.
