Bis(pyridine-3-carboxylic acid-N)silver(I) perchlorate

X.-Y. Nie and Q.-Z. Li

Abstract: In the title compound, [Ag(C₆H₅NO₂)₂]ClO₄, the Ag^I atom shows an almost linear coordination geometry, defined by two N atoms from two pyridine-3-carboxylic acid ligands. The complex cations are linked by hydrogen bonds between the carboxyl groups into a chain. The chains are further connected through C-HO hydrogen bonds and a weak AgO interaction [2.757 (8) Å] into a layer. Another AgO interaction [2.899 (2) Å] and a C-HO hydrogen bond connect the layers into a three-dimensional network.
