AbstractA new polyoxometalate (POM)-based inorganic–organic hybrid compound, [Ag2(bib)3][H2SiW12O40] (1), has been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by routine methods. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that inorganic supramolecular chains constructed of POM and [Ag2(bib)3] subunits are fused together via the Ag cations forming a 3D supramolecular structure. The structure possesses the moganite-type topology. The photocatalytic properties have been investigated through the oxidative decomposition of Rhodamine-B dye.
