Main Results:

  • Successful synthesis of planar penta- and tetranuclear wheel-shaped silver complexes: [Ag(2-HPB)2(A)](OTf).
  • NMR studies revealed a stepwise self-assembly process: 2Ag → 3Ag → 5Ag → 4Ag.
  • Central anions (hydroxide, fluoride, chloride) influence complex size and properties.
  • Confined central hydroxides in 4Ag and 5Ag complexes exhibit exotic physical properties.

Conclusions:

  • A facile method for synthesizing discrete wheel-shaped multinuclear silver complexes is presented.
  • The size of silver wheels can be tuned by altering the central anion or silver atom count.
  • The study provides valuable insights into the dynamics of self-assembly in silver complex formation.
