-N'-(4-cyanobenzylidene)nicotinohydrazide] hexafluoridophosphate]In the title polymer, {[Ag(C14H10N4O)2]PF6}n, each AgI ion is coordinated by two N atoms from two pyridyl rings of independent N'-(4-cyanobenzylidene)nicotinohydrazide ligands, and one N atom from one carbonitrile group of a symmetry-related ligand in a distorted T-shaped geometry. The ligands exhibit two modes of coordination. One acts as a bridge connecting Ag atoms to form one-dimensional chains along [
01]. The other acts as a terminal monodentate ligand, coordinating to Ag through its pyridyl N atom. Two neighbouring antiparallel chains in the crystal are connected through N-H
O hydrogen bonds. Other adjacent chains are packed via Ag
O interactions, with Ag
O separations of 2.876 (2) Å. In addition, PF6- counter-anions interact with the hydrazone groups through N-H
F hydrogen bonds. The PF6- anion is disordered over two sites, with occupancies of 0.773 (8) and 0.227 (8).
A solution of AgPF6 (0.025 g, 0.1 mmol) in CH3OH (10 ml) was carefully layered on a CH3OH/CHCl3 solution (5 ml/10 ml) of 4-cyanobenzylidene nicotinohydrazide (0.025 g, 0.1 mmol) in a straight glass tube. About ten days later, colourless single crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained (yield: ca. 50%). Analysis, calculated for C28H20AgN8O2F6P: C 44.64, H 2.68, N 14.87%; found: C 44.79, H 2.69, N 14.99%.
C-bound H atoms were placed in calculated positions and refined using a riding model [C—H = 0.95 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C)]. The N-bound H atoms were first introduced in calculated positions, and then their positions and displacement parameters were refined with the N—H bond lengths restrained to 0.88 (2) Å. Four F atoms (F1/F2/F3/F4) of the hexafluorophosphate anion are disordered over two positions (F1'/F2'/F3'/F4'), and all P—F bond lengths were restrained to a target value of 1.58 (2) Å. Displacement parameters for disordered F atoms were also subjected to restraints. The final difference map had a highest peak at 0.88 Å from Ag1 and a deepest hole at 0.71 Å from Ag1, but was otherwise featureless.

Pyridyl organic ligands with carbonitrile groups can be used to construct silver coordination complexes with fascinating structures and good fluorescent properties (Sumby & Hardie, 2005; Dong et al., 2004). We also synthesized one-dimensional and two-dimensional silver coordination polymers using this kind of ligands (Niu et al., 2007, 2008). Herein, a one-dimensional silver coordination polymer constructed with a new bridging ligand of this type, 4-cyanobenzylidene nicotinohydrazide, is reported.
In the title compound, (I), the central AgI ion is coordinated by two N atoms from two pyridyl rings of two different ligands (N1, N2) and one N atom from one carbonitrile group of another ligand [N8i, symmetry code: (i) x - 1/2, -y + 3/2, z + 1/2], forming a slightly distorted T-shaped coordination environment (Fig. 1). The N1—Ag1—N2 bond angle is 156.22 (8)°, indicating these three atoms are not exactly in one line. Bond angles N1—Ag1—N8i and N2—Ag1—N8i are larger than 90° (Table 1). The Ag—N bond distances for pyridyl rings are in the range 2.172 (2)–2.199 (2) Å, which is smaller than N—Ag bond distance for the carbonitrile group (Table 1).
One 4-cyanobenzylidene nicotinohydrazide molecule acts as a µ2-bridging ligand, by coordinating pyridyl and carbonitrile N atoms. Each bridging ligand connects two silver atoms together by one pyridyl N atom (N1) and one carbonitrile N atom (N8) to form a one-dimensional chain along the [-1 0 1] direction. The separation between two neighbouring Ag atoms in one chain is about 16 Å. Meanwhile, the other independent ligand is acting as a terminal ligand, being coordinated to Ag only through a pyridyl N atom. Two terminal ligands connected to two adjacent Ag atoms in one chain are located at the opposite positions away from the chain (Fig. 2).
There are hydrogen bonds between uncoordinating groups, including pyridyl rings of terminal ligands and all hydrazone groups, as well as other groups like counteranions. On one hand, counteranions PF6- interact with the ligands in the polymer through N—H···F hydrogen bonds (Table 2). Four F atoms (F1 to F4) of the PF6- anion are disordered over two sites, with occupancies 0.773 (8) and 0.227 (8). On the other hand, there are also N—H···O hydrogen bonds between two neighbouring antiparallel chains in the crystal (Fig. 3). In addition to these intermolecular contacts, there are weak Ag···O interactions between one O atom (O1) of the terminal ligand and one Ag atom in the neighbouring chain, with Ag···O separations of 2.876 (2) Å. These noncovalent interactions have large contributions to the supramolecular three-dimensional framework.
One-dimensional AgI coordination polymers with T-shaped coordination geometry were previously described in a few compounds: {[Ag(2,6-di(3-pyridylmethylidene) cyclohexanone)](NO3)}n (Vatsadze et al., 2004) and {[Ag(2,2'-(methylenebis(thio)) bis(pyrimidine))](NO3)}n (Zheng et al., 2003). The N—Ag—N bond angles in these two compounds deviate from 180° (ca. 158 and 131°, respectively), which are close to that observed in (I).
