By using 1-methyl-4-(carbomethoxy)pyridinium (MCMP+) as counterions, two iodoargentate hybrids, 1D [MCMP][AgI2] (1) and 3D [MCMP][Ag3I4] (2) have been synthesized and they exhibit rare electron transfer photochromism with a fast response rate, a wide response range and a long-lived charge-separated state in iodometallate systems. Noteworthily, the marked differences in the structure and photoch...
