Photoreaction of guest organic anions in layered organic-inorganic hybrid materials was investigated. The layered hybrids were synthesized by an anion-exchange reaction of $[LiAl_2(OH)_6]Cl{cdot}yH_2O$ layered double hydroxide with aqueous (Z,Z)- and (E,E)-muconates under inert atmospheric condition, to give new organicinorganic hybrids of $[LiAl_2(OH)_6]_2[(Z,Z)-C_6H_4O_4]{cdot}zH_2O$ and $[LiAl_2(OH)_6]_2[(E,E)-C_6H_4O_4]{cdot}H_2O$, respectively. The basal spacings calculated by XRPD of intercalates indicate that muconate anions have almost vertical arrangements against the host $[LiAl_2(OH)_6]^+$ lattices in the interlayer of organic-inorganic hybrid materials. When UV light was irradiated on the suspension of $[LiAl_2(OH)_6]_2[(Z,Z)-C_6H_4O_4]{cdot}zH_2O$, the (Z,Z)-muconate anions of the gallery space of hybrids were polymerized in the aqueous media while it was isomerized into more stable (E,E)-muconate in the methanollic suspension in the presence of catalytic amount of molecular iodine. All the products were characterized using elemental analysis, TGA, XRPD, FT-IR, $^1H$ NMR and $^{13}C$ CP-MAS NMR.
