Abstract:
In the title compound, [Ag(2)(C(12)H(7)N(3)O(2))(2)(C(25)H(22)P(2))(2)](SbF(6))(2), the two Ag(I) atoms are bridged by the two methyl-enebis(diphenyl-phosphine) ligands and an eight-membered centrosymmetric metallacyclic ring is formed. The metal atom exhibits a distorted tetra-hedral coordination geometry, coordinated by two P atoms of the bridging ligands and two N atoms of the chelating 5-nitro-1,10-phenanthroline ligand. The latter ligand shows minor disorder, adopting two orientations with site occupancy factors of 0.84 and 0.16.

Metal-Ligand Bonds
In these complexes, transition metals form coordinate covalent bonds, a kind of Lewis acid-base interaction in which both of the electrons in the bond are contributed by a donor (Lewis base) to an electron acceptor (Lewis acid). The Lewis acid in...
Structural Isomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula. Structural isomerism of coordination compounds can be divided into two subcategories, the linkage isomers and coordination-sphere isomers.
Linkage isomers occur when the coordination compound contains a ligand that can bind to the transition metal center through two different atoms. For example, the CN− ligand can bind through the carbon atom or through the nitrogen atom. Similarly, SCN− can be...
