N3)silver(I) nitrate dihydrateThe AgI atom in the salt, [Ag(C4H6N2)2]NO3·2H2O, shows a nearly linear coordination [N-Ag-N = 178.26 (7)°]. The cation, anion and water molecules are linked by N-H
O and O-H
O hydrogen bonds into a layer motif extending parallel to (101).
Silver nitrate (0.5 mmol, 0.085 g) and 2-methyl-1H-imidazole (0.5 mmol, 0.041 g) in water (15 ml) were heated in a Parr bomb at 433 K for three days. Crystals of the adduct were isolated from the cool mixture in 30% yield.
Carbon-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H 0.93–0.97 Å) and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation, with U(H) set to 1.2–1.5U(C). The amino and water H atoms were located in a difference Fourier map, and were refined with a distance restraint of N–H = O–H = 0.85±0.01 Å; their displacement parameters were refined.
The final difference Fourier map had a peak that was displaced by 0.5 along y relative to Ag1. Thus, for the reflections with k odd a scale factor was refined to 1.035 (2) with respect to the reflections with k even. Although the refinement was not significantly improved, the final difference Fourier map now did not have any large peaks.
