The disassembly and reassembly of giant molecules are essential processes in controlling the structure and function of biological and artificial systems. In this work, the disassembly and reassembly of a giant ring-shaped polyoxometalate (POM) without isomerization of the monomeric units is reported. The reaction of a hexavacant lacunary POM that is soluble in organic solvents, [P2W12O48](14-), with manganese cations gave the giant ring-shaped POM [gamma-P2W12O48Mn4-(C5H7O2)(2)(CH3CO2)}(6)](42-). This POM is a hexamer of manganese-substituted {P2W12O48Mn4} units, and its inner cavity was larger than any of those previously reported for ring-shaped polyoxotungstates. It was disassembled into monomeric units in acetonitrile, and the removal of the capping organic ligands on the manganese cations led to reassembly into a tetrameric ring-shaped POM, [{gamma-P2W12O48Mn4(H2O)(6)}(4)-(H2O)(4)](24-).
