Bis(2-aminopyridine-N¹)silver(I) nitrate

H.-K. Fun, J. John, S. R. Jebas and T. Balasubramanian

Abstract: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Ag(C₅H₆N₂)₂]NO₃, consists of one and a half each of both cations and anions, the other halves being generated by crystallographic inversion centres. One of the Ag^I atoms lies on an inversion center and one of the nitrate ions is disordered across an inversion center. Each Ag^I atom is bicoordinated in a linear geometry by two N atoms from two 2-aminopyridine ligands. In the crystal structure, the cations and anions are linked into a two-dimensional network parallel to (001) by N-HO and C-HO hydrogen bonds.
