A new organic-inorganic composite (4,4'-H2bipy)2(4,4'-Hbipy)2(ZnW12O40)·6H2O has been prepared by hydrothermal reaction and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and UV spectra, thermal analysis and single-crystal X-ray structural analysis. It belongs to the monoclinic system, space group P21/c, with a = 18.637(4), b = 14.003(3), c = 26.470(5) Å, β = 104.78(3)°, V = 6680(2) Å3, Z = 4. Structural analysis indicates that the title complex consists of a Keggin anion [ZnW12O40]6-, 4,4'-bipyridine and water of crystallization, constructing a supramolecular system through hydrogen bonding interactions. Thermal analysis shows that the heteropolyanion [ZnW12O40]6- starts to decompose at 587.0°C.
