Z.-D. Liu and H.-L. Zhu

Abstract: The title compound, {[Ag(C₆H₁₈N₄)](ClO₄)}_n, is a polymeric silver(I) complex. The tris(2-aminoethyl)amine (tren) molecule acts as tridentate ligand. Each Ag^I ion is four-coordinated by three N atoms from one tren ligand and one N atom from a symmetry-related tren ligand. The symmetry-related tren ligand acts as a bridge linking the Ag^I atoms together, forming a polymeric chain. Adjacent chains are linked via N-HO hydrogen bonds to anions, forming a three-dimensional network.
