Abstract: Colourless crystals of the title compound, [Ag(C₅H₇N₃)(C₆H₉N₃)]NO₃, separated out of a solution of 2-amino-4-methylpyrimidine, 2-amino-4,6-dimethylpyrimidine and silver nitrate in water and methanol. The central Ag^I ion is coordinated by two different N atoms in the aromatic rings of the ligands, with an N-Ag-N angle of 173.9 (2)°. The crystal structure is composed of two complexed cations and stabilized by an intermolecular N-HO and N-HN hydrogen-bond network and there is - stacking of the aromatic rings [interplanar distance 3.651 (10) Å].
