Crystal structure and magnetic properties of the layered vanadium phosphate $\text{PbZnVO}{({\text{PO}}_{4})}_{2}$ are studied using x-ray powder diffraction, magnetization and specific-heat measurements, as well as band-structure calculations. The compound resembles $A{A}^{\ensuremath{'}}\text{VO}{({\text{PO}}_{4})}_{2}$ vanadium phosphates and fits to the extended frustrated square-lattice model with the couplings ${J}_{1},\text{ }{J}_{1}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ between nearest neighbors and ${J}_{2},\text{ …
