Bis(quinolin-8-ol)silver(I) 2-hydroxy-3,5-dinitrobenzoate

C.-L. Zhang and F.-F. Jian

Abstract: The title compound, [Ag(C₉H₇NO)₂](C₇H₃N₂O₇), was prepared from 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS), quinolin-8-ol and AgNO₃. The Ag^I atom is coordinated by two N atoms and two O atoms from two quinolin-8-ols in a roughly planar [maximum deviation = 0.223 (2) Å] environment. The two quinolin-8-ol ligands are bent slightly with respect to each other, making a dihedral angle of 9.55 (9)°. The DNS anion interacts with the silver complex through O-HO hydrogen bonds
