Poly[aqua-[mu]-1H-1,2,3-benzotriazole-[mu]-nitrato-nitratodisilver(I)]

D. R. Whitcomb and M. Rajeswaran

Abstract: A unique and stable silver benzotriazole complex, [Ag2(NO3)2(C6H3N3)(H2O)]n, is reported in which the benzotriazole is coordinated to the silver as a neutral donor ligand, bridging two silver atoms. Weakly bound nitrate anions and H2O complete the coordination environment. The structure is built upon a chain of alternating units [-Ag-HBZT-Ag-(NO3)2-H2O-] where the three available bonding sites of the HBZT (1H-1,2,3-benzotriazole) ligand are fully occupied: two N atoms of the azine component are bound to silver and the third retains the original hydrogen.
