The catalytic activity of an inorganic-organic complex with a vanadium-substituted polyoxometalate 1, formulated as [Cu(2,2'-bipy)]$[Cu(2,2'-bipy)_2]_2[PMo_8V_6O_{42}]{\cdot}1.5H_2O$ was studied in the Biginelli reactions. The obtained results showed that, in the one-pot synthesis of dihydropyrimidinones, the turnover frequencies (TOF) for the [Cu(2,2'-bipy)]$[Cu(2,2'-bipy)_2]_2[PMo_8V_6O_{42}]{\cdot}1.5H_2O$ catalyst were higher than the $H_3PMo_{12}O_{40}$ catalyst.
