%X Reaction of Ba<sub>0.50</sub>[Ag<sub>2</sub>Cr(C<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub>)<sub>3</sub>]&middot;5H<sub>2</sub>O with Ag<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub> in an aqueous solution of sulfuric acid (pH ¡Ö 3) yielded the silver(I)/chromium(III) oxalate salt H<sub>0.50</sub>[Ag<sub>2.50</sub>Cr(C<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub>)<sub>3</sub>]&middot;5H<sub>2</sub>O (1). Compound 1 can be best described as an anionic silver-deficient oxalatochromate(III) complex [Ag<sub>2.50</sub>Cr(C<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub>)<sub>3</sub>]<sup>0.5-</sup> with nanochannels containing hydrogen-bonded water molecules and protons. Thermal analyses show significant weight losses corresponding to the elimination of water molecules of crystallization followed by the decomposition of the network.
