Abstract: The title coordination polymer, {[Ag(C₁₂H₁₁N₃O)]NO₃·H₂O}_n, has a polycationic chain motif in which the Ag atom is bridged by the heterocyclic ligand; the Ag atom shows linear coordination. If the two long AgO_nitrate interactions [2.794 (6) and 2.867 (5) Å] are regarded as bonds, the compound adopts a three-dimensional network structure. The water molecule consolidates the network structure by forming hydrogen bonds, one to the polycationic chain and one to the nitrate anion.
