In the title complex, {[Ag(C8H7N5)]ClO4·H2O}n, the multidentate dipyrazin-2-ylamine acts as a μ2-bridging link with an anti–syn configuration, assembling the AgI ions into a zigzag chain structure. The AgI ion is linearly coordinated by two dipyrazin-2-ylamine ligands through two pyrazine N atoms. (ClO4−)⋯π(pyrazine) [O⋯centroid distances of 3.612 (3) and 3.664 (1) Å] and π–π interactions [centroid–centroid distance = 3.518 (2) Å] as well as O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen-bonds assemble the chains into a three-dimensional supramolecular aggregation.

Hdpza was synthesized following literature procedures (Ismayilov et al., 2007). A mixture of Hdpza (100 mg, 0.58 mmol) and AgClO4.xH2O (172 mg) in methanol (40 ml) was stirred for five hours at room temperature. The resulting clear solution was filtered and then left to stand in air for about 7 days. Brown crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction (97.1 mg, 42% yield, on the basis of Hdpza) were obtained.
Hydrogen atoms attached to C were placed in idealized positions and allowed to ride on the corresponding carbon atoms, with C— H = 0.93 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C). O-H's and N-H's were obtained from Fourier-difference maps, idealized with a O—H: 0.89 Å , N-H= 0.82 Å and allowed to ride with Uĩso~(H) = 1.5Ueq(O).
The oligo-α-pyridylamino ligands are widely employed in the construction of diverse interesting metal-organic frameworks (Clérac et al., 2000, Chem et al., 2006). By using one or both nitrogen ligation sites in each heteroaromatic ring attached to the rotatable C–N(amine) bond, dipyrazin-2-ylamine (Hdpza) has led to several Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cr(II) complexes (Ismayilov et al., 2007). Notably, π–acidic aromatic rings such as these N-rich heterocycles have been demonstrated to play an important role in supramolecular assemblies through anion–π interaction, which is of current interest (Egli et al., 2007, Mooibroek et al., 2008).
The ∞ consists of an [Ag(Hdpza)]+ cationic group, accompanied by one perchlorate anion and one water solvate (Fig.1). Each AgI center is surrounded by two Hdpza with two 4-pyrazinyl N atoms [N1 and N3i, (i): –x + 3/2, -y + 1, z – 1/2] bonding to the metal, while the ligand exhibits as a µ2-bridging mode with the two 4-pyrazinyl N atoms as bonding sites to link the AgI ions into an infinite chain structure along the c axis (Fig.2). Cationic chains are stacked along the a axis and interconnect through π–π interactions (Fig. 2). In addition, a O(perchl)···π(pyrazine) interaction combines with O-H···O and N-H···O hydrogen-bonds (Table 1) to assemble the infinite chain motifs into a three-dimensional supramolecular structure .
in the title silver(I) complex ([Ag(Hdpza)]+.ClO4-.H2O)Lattice water molecules and perchlorate anions are embedded within the interstices through O—H(water)···O(perchl) and N—H(amine)···O(water) H-bonding. The ClO4- anion simultaneously links three neighbouring chains through weak C—H···O(perchl) (C···O span: 3.446 (1) Å - 3.499 (2) Å ) and O(perchl) ···π interactions (O2···Cg: 3.612 (3) Å; O3···Cg: 3.664 (1) Å; Cg:the pyrazinyl ring centroid)

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

The oligo-α-pyridylamino ligands are widely employed in the construction of diverse interesting metal-organic frameworks (Clérac et al., 2000, Chem et al., 2006). By using one or both nitrogen ligation sites in each heteroaromatic ring attached to the rotatable C–N(amine) bond, dipyrazin-2-ylamine (Hdpza) has led to several Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cr(II) complexes (Ismayilov et al., 2007). Notably, π–acidic aromatic rings such as these N-rich heterocycles have been demonstrated to play an important role in supramolecular assemblies through anion–π interaction, which is of current interest (Egli et al., 2007, Mooibroek et al., 2008).
The asymmetric unit in the title silver(I) complex ([Ag(Hdpza)]+.ClO4-.H2O)∞ consists of an [Ag(Hdpza)]+ cationic group, accompanied by one perchlorate anion and one water solvate (Fig.1). Each AgI center is surrounded by two Hdpza with two 4-pyrazinyl N atoms [N1 and N3i, (i): –x + 3/2, -y + 1, z – 1/2] bonding to the metal, while the ligand exhibits as a µ2-bridging mode with the two 4-pyrazinyl N atoms as bonding sites to link the AgI ions into an infinite chain structure along the c axis (Fig.2). Cationic chains are stacked along the a axis and interconnect through π–π interactions (Fig. 2). In addition, a O(perchl)···π(pyrazine) interaction combines with O-H···O and N-H···O hydrogen-bonds (Table 1) to assemble the infinite chain motifs into a three-dimensional supramolecular structure .
Lattice water molecules and perchlorate anions are embedded within the interstices through O—H(water)···O(perchl) and N—H(amine)···O(water) H-bonding. The ClO4- anion simultaneously links three neighbouring chains through weak C—H···O(perchl) (C···O span: 3.446 (1) Å - 3.499 (2) Å ) and O(perchl) ···π interactions (O2···Cg: 3.612 (3) Å; O3···Cg: 3.664 (1) Å; Cg:the pyrazinyl ring centroid)
