Silver(I)-polynitrile network solids for anion exchange: Anion-induced transformation of supramolecular structure in the crystalline state
Novel supramolecular solids whose topologies depend on the counteranion, [Ag(C14H20N6)(NO3)] (1), [Ag(C14H20N6)]CF3SO3 (2), and [Ag(C14H20N6)]ClO4 (3), have been prepared by the self-assembly of AgX (X = NO3-, CF3SO3-, and ClO4-) with ethylenediaminetetrapropionitrile (EDTPN, C14H20N6) X-ray crystal structures indicate that compounds 1-3 are a 1-D coordination polymer, a 2-D layer, and a boxlike 2-D network, respectively. In 1, 2, and 3, the EDTPN ligand undergoes anion-dependent ligation to bind two, three, and five Ag(I) ions per EDTPN, respectively, by using the cyano groups in addition to two tertiary nitrogen atoms. The coordination numbers of Ag(I) ion in 1, 2, and 3, are five, four, and six, respectively. Interestingly, the CF3SO3- anion of 2 is exchanged with NO3-and ClO4- quantitatively in the crystalline state when the crystal of 2 is immersed in the aqueous solutions of NaNO3 and NaClO4, respectively. The anion-exchange process is reversible between 1 and 2 but irreversible from 1 or 2 into 3. The supramolecular structural transformations among 1-3 are observed in the crystalline state, concomitant with the anion-exchange.
