Synthesis and structural characterization of the 2-[(o-pyridyl)-sulfanylmethyl]-pyrimidine-silver(I) complex [Ag-2(OPSP)(2)](NO3)(2)
The new silver(I) complexe [Ag-2(opsp)(2)](NO3)(2) (1) was synthesized by the self-assembly of AgX (X = NO3-) with the versatile multidentate ligand opsp (opsp = 2-[(o-pyridyl)-sulfanylmethyl]-pyrimidine). X-ray single-crystal diffraction analyses show that 1 is dinuclear molecule. In 1, 1 opsp ligand acts in a bidentate mode with 2 nitrogen atoms from a pyridine ring and a pyrimidine ring coordinating to 2 Ag(l) atoms, and the Ag(I) center is 2-coordinated by 2 nitrogen atoms showing linear coordination geometry.
