• The controlled assembly of molecules, ions, and ligands as building blocks based on crystal engineering leads to various functional crystalline solids. In particular, polyoxometalates (POMs), which are anionic metal oxide clusters, have been a popular motif in crystal engineering. To revisit simple mononuclear metal complexes as counter cations of POMs, seven ionic crystals based on Keggin‐ or Dawson‐type POMs with mononuclear bismuth(III) complexes as counter cations were synthesized. The bismuth(III) center exhibited triangular dodecahedron, square antiprism, or pseudo‐cubic eight‐coordination geometries, with dimethyl sulfoxide or N,N‐dimethylformamide as ligands. The ionic crystals showed polymorphic transformation depending on the synthetic or recrystallization conditions. As a method for exploring functionality, proton conductivities of the ionic crystals were measured under humidified conditions. The ionic crystals with high porosity, tertiary amine moieties, or coordination water exhibited high proton conductivities, and large activation energies indicate that protons are transferred mainly with water molecules via the vehicle mechanism. Seven ionic crystals were synthesized based on Keggin‐ or Dawson‐type polyoxometalates and mononuclear bismuth(III) complexes. The ionic crystals showed polymorphic transformations, and the proton conductivity of the ionic crystals depended on the types of ligands and/or the porosity of the crystal lattice.
