Through employing two isomeric ligands, isonicotinic acid (HINA) and nicotinic acid (HNA), with different electron delocalization nature, two high-dimensional hybrids based on highly connected alpha-metatungstate clusters, [Na{sub 2}(H{sub 2}O){sub 8}Ag{sub 2}(HINA){sub 3}(INA)][Na(H{sub 2}O){sub 2}Ag{sub 2}(HINA){sub 4}(H{sub 2}W{sub 12}O{sub 40})].2H{sub 2}O (1) and [Na{sub 2}(H{sub 2}O){sub 4}Ag{sub 6}(HNA){sub 2}(NA){sub 2}(H{sub 2}W{sub 12}O{sub 40})].8H{sub 2}O (2), have been conventionally synthesized and structurally characterized. 1 exhibits an unusual 1D-in-2D pseudo-polyrotaxane entangled structure, namely, the 2D sheets [Na(H{sub 2}O){sub 2}Ag{sub 2}(HINA){sub 4}(H{sub 2}W{sub 12}O{sub 40})]{sub n}{sup 3n-} are penetrated by enantiomorphous meso-helical chains [Na{sub 2}(H{sub 2}O){sub 8}Ag{sub 2}(HINA){sub 3}(INA)]{sub n}{sup 3n+}. In the 2D sheets, each [H{sub 2}W{sub 12}O{sub 40}]{sup 6-} cluster is surrounded by six Ag and two Na atoms. 2 exhibits a 3D (4, 6)-net structure with (3{sup 2}6{sup 2}7{sup 2})(3{sup 2}4{sup 4}5{sup 4}6{sup 4}7)(3{sup 2}4{sup 4}6{sup 8}7) topology, in which each [H{sub 2}W{sub 12}O{sub 40}]{sup 6-} cluster is connected with ten Ag atoms. These facts indicate that the isomeric ligands play a key role in the formation of final structures. From 1 to 2, the connection number of the [H{sub 2}W{sub 12}O{sub 40}]{sup 6-} cluster changes from 8 to 10 and the dimensionality increases from 2 to 3. Moreover, 1 and 2 display photoluminescent properties in the blue range at room temperature. - Graphical abstract: Two high-dimensional and highly connected alpha-metatungstate-compounds modified by Ag{sup I}-HINA/HNA TMCs were successful obtained and the effect of isomeric organic ligands on the structures was systematically elucidated.
