Taming of the Silver FOX
The first silver-FOX, silver-ammonia-FOX, and silver-amine-FOX compounds were synthesized by the reactions of silver nitrate with K-FOX or guanidine-FOX in water, aqueous ammonia, and amines, respectively. The crystal structure of silver-ammonia-FOX exhibits unique covalent bonding behavior, which is supported by NBO calculations.
