A series of hybrid inorganic–organic niobates HCa2Nb3O10×ROH, containing n-alkoxy groups of primary alcohols (R = Me, Et, Pr, Bu, Hx, and Dc) grafted in the interlayer space, has been studied for the first time in relation to photocatalytic hydrogen generation from a model 1 mol % aqueous solution of methanol under ultraviolet irradiation. Photocatalytic activity was measured both for bare samples and for their composites with Pt nanoparticles as a cocatalyst. The advanced measurement scheme allowed monitoring the volume concentration of a sample in a suspension during the experiment, its pH, and possible exfoliation of layered compounds into nanolayers. In the series of n-alkoxy derivatives, the maximum rate of hydrogen evolution was achieved over a Pt-loaded ethoxy derivative HCa2Nb3O10×EtOH/Pt. Its apparent quantum efficiency of 20.6% in the 220–350 nm range was found not to be caused by changes in the light absorption region or specific surface area upon ethanol grafting. Moreover, the amounts of hydrogen released during the measurements significantly exceeded those of interlayer organic components, indicating that hydrogen is generated from the reaction solution rather than from the hybrid material.
