Poly[[(μ(3)-isonicotinato-κO:O:N)(triphenyl-phosphine-κP)silver(I)] ethanol solvate]
Abstract:
In the crystal structure of {[Ag(C(6)H(4)NO(2))(C(18)H(15)P)]·C(2)H(6)O}(n), the 4-pyridylcarboxyl-ate ion binds to the phosphine-coordinated silver atoms through one of the two oxygen atoms of the carboxyl unit, and to a third phosphine-coordinate silver atom through the nitro-gen atom of the aromatic ring, giving a distorted tetra-hedral coordination at the metal atom. The μ(3)-bridging mode leads to a layer motif; the disordered ethanol mol-ecules are linked to the free carboxyl oxygen atom by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
