(Received 23 July 2010; accepted 3 August 2010; online 11 August 2010)

The mol­ecular structure of the title polymeric complex, {[Ag2Cl(CH4N2S)2]NO3}n, consists of a binuclear cationic complex and a nitrate counter-ion. The cationic complex contains two bridging thio­urea (Tu) ligands and a triply bridging μ3-Cl anion. The latter is probably released from 2-amino­ethane­thiol hydro­chloride during the synthesis. The coordination environment around the two AgI atoms is different; one is trigonal planar, being coordinated by two thio­urea ligands through the S atoms and to one Cl− ion, while in the other the AgI atom is tetra­hedrally coordinated by two thio­urea ligands through the S atoms and to two Cl− ions. These units aggregate through the Cl− anion and the Tu S atoms, forming a chain propagating in [100]. In the crystal structure, the polymeric chains are linked via N—H⋯O and N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, forming a double layer two-dimensional network propagating in (011).

Comment top

The study of the coordination and structural chemistry of silver(I) complexes with sulfur containing ligands has been a matter of interest over the last decades due to their wide range of applications in medicine and in analytical chemistry (Raper, 1996; Akrivos, 2001), and also due to their ability to adopt geometries with variable nuclearities and structural diversity. Consequently, several silver(I) complexes containing thiones (Stocker et al., 2000; Pakawatchai et al., 1996; Casas et al., 1996; Aslandis et al., 2005; Ashraf et al., 2004; Isab et al., 2002) and thiolates (Nomiya et al., 2000; Zachariadis et al., 2003; Tsyba et al., 2003) have been prepared and structurally characterized. Silver(I) complexes with thiolates like thiomalic acid, thiosalisalic acid and 2-mercaptonicotinic acid [Nomiya et al., 2000; Zachariadis et al., 2003] also have remarkable antimicrobial activities for bacteria, yeast, and mold. The present report describes the structure of the new title silver(I) cluster of thiourea (Tu).

The molecular structure of the title complex is shown in Fig. 1. The asymmetric unit consists of a binuclear cationic complex and a nitrate counter ion. The cationic complex contains two silver(I) atoms, Ag1 and Ag2, two Tu ligands which bridge the silver(I) atoms via the S-atoms, and a triply bridging (µ3)Cl- anion. The latter is probably released from 2-aminoethanethiol hydrochloride during the synthesis. The coordination environments around the two silver atoms are different. Atom Ag1 possesses a tetrahedral geometry, being coordinated to two thiourea ligands through the S-atoms, and two Cl- anions. Atom Ag2 has a trigonal planar geometry, being coordinated to two thiourea ligands through S-atoms and to one Cl- anion. These units aggregate through the Cl- anion, and the Tu sulfur atoms, to form a one-dimensional chain which propagates in [100], as shown in Fig. 1.

The Ag—S distances around the trigonally coordinated Ag2 center [Ag2—S1 = 2.4827 (15) Å, Ag2—S2 = 2.4913 (16) Å] are somewhat longer than those around tetrahedrally coordinated Ag1 center [Ag1—S1 = 2.4305 (15) Å, Ag1—S2 = 2.4278 (15) Å]. In contrast the Ag—Cl bond distances are lengthened. The Ag1—Cl1 and Ag1—Cl1c [symmetry code: (c) 1 - x, 2 - y, 1 - z] distances are 2.8393 (15) and 2.9280 (16) Å, respectively, compared to distance Ag2—Cl1 which is 2.5477 (14) Å. The individual distances and angles within the Tu ligand are comparable to those reported for other Ag-thiourea complexes [Udupa et al., 1976; Hanif et al., 2007].

The shortest silver(I)···silver(I) distance of 3.2889 (8) Å [Ag1—Ag2a; symmetry code: (a) -1 + x, y, z] indicates that the complex is stabilized by significant argentophilic interactions. This distance is comparable to values reported previously [Nomiya et al., 2000; Zachariadis et al., 2003; Tsyba et al., 2003]. The other short Ag···Ag distances include Ag2···Ag2d and Ag1···Ag2d of 3.5169 (8) and 3.5753 (8) Å, respectively [symmetry code: (d) 2 - x, 2 - y, -z], see Fig. 1.

In the crystal the polymeric chains are linked via N—H···O hydrogen bonds, involving the thiourea NH2 H-atoms and the nitrate O-atoms, and N—H···Cl contacts (Fig. 2, Table 1), to form a double layer two-dimensional network propagating in plane (011).

Experimental top

The title complex was prepared by adding 1 mmol (0.113 g) of 2-aminoethanethiol hydrochloride, dissolved in 10 ml of distilled water, to 1 mmol (0.170 g) of AgNO3, dissolved in 30 ml of distilled water. The mixture was stirred for 15–20 min giving a clear solution. 1 mmol (0.076 g) of thiourea, dissolved in 10 ml of methanol, was then added and the mixture was stirred for a further 15 min. The solution was then filtered and the filtrate kept at RT for slow evaporation of the solvent. After 2–3 days colourless crystals, suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis, were obtained.

Refinement top

The NH2 H-atoms could be located in difference electron-density maps. In the final cycles of least-squares refinement they were included in calculated positions and treated as riding atoms: N—H = 0.88 Å, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N).

Geometry. Bond distances, angles etc. have been calculated using the rounded fractional coordinates. All su's are estimated from the variances of the (full) variance-covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account in the estimation of distances, angles and torsion angles

Refinement. The NH2H-atoms were included in calculated positions and treated as riding atoms: N—H 0.88 Å with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(parent N-atom).
