Bis[triamminesilver(I)] bis[diamminesilver(I)] hexafluoridostannate(IV) difluoride, [Ag(NH₃)₃]₂[Ag(NH₃)₂]₂[SnF₆]F₂, was obtained in the form of colourless crystals from the reaction of CsAgSnF₇ in anhydrous ammonia. Two different ammine complexes of silver(I) are present in the structure, i.e. a linear diammine and a T-shaped triammine complex. The ammine silver(I) complexes show Ag⋯Ag distances in the range of argentophilic interactions. In the crystal, several N—H⋯F hydrogen bonds are present between the complex cations and the SbF₆⁻ and F⁻ anions, leading to the formation of a three-dimensional network.

Keywords: crystal structure; silver; argentophilic interactions; fluorides; ammine ligand.

1. Chemical context

Metallophilicity, especially argento- and aurophilicity, is a theoretically and experimentally well-established concept, see, for example, the seminal works of Jansen (Jansen, 1987 ), Schmidbaur and co-workers (Scherbaum et al., 1988 ; Schmidbaur, 1995 ; Schmidbaur & Schier, 2012 , 2015 ) or Pyykkö and co-workers (Pyykkö & Zhao, 1991 ; Pyykkö, 1997 ,2004 ; Pyykkö et al., 1997 ; Pyykkö & Mendizabal, 1997 ). We reacted a silver(II) compound, CsAgSnF₇, with anhydrous liquid ammonia and observed the reduction of Ag^II. The preparation conditions and crystal structure of the thus obtained Ag^I title compound, [Ag(NH₃)₃]₂[Ag(NH₃)₂]₂[SnF₆]F₂, is reported here. The short Ag⋯Ag distances between the complex cations are in the range of argentophilic interactions.

2. Structural commentary

[Ag(NH₃)₃]₂[Ag(NH₃)₂]₂[SnF₆]F₂ crystallizes in space group type P2₁/c. The Sn atom occupies Wyckoff position 2d (site symmetry $[\overline{1}]$ ), all other atoms reside on general positions 4e. The structure comprises of [Ag(NH₃)₃]⁺ and [Ag(NH₃)₂]⁺ complex cations as well as F⁻ and [SnF₆]²⁻ anions (Fig. 1). The diamminesilver(I) cation (Ag2) is almost linear with an N—Ag—N angle of 170.93 (7)° and Ag—N distances of 2.1160 (16) and 2.1183 (16) Å. The deviation from linearity is likely to arise from the surrounding, i.e. N—H⋯F hydrogen bonding to adjacent [SnF₆]²⁻ and F⁻ anions. This [Ag(NH₃)₂]⁺ cation shows a short Ag⋯Ag distance of 3.0611 (2) Å to a neighboring [Ag(NH₃)₃]⁺ cation and another slightly longer Ag⋯Ag distance of 3.3282 (2) Å to a second [Ag(NH₃)₃]⁺ cation (symmetry code x, −y + $[{1\over 2}]$ , z + $[{1\over 2}]$ ). The triammine silver(I) cation (Ag1) is T-shaped and can be viewed as a linear diammine silver(I) cation to which another ammine ligands is bound at a longer distance. The short Ag—N distances are 2.1434 (16) and 2.1662 (16) Å, and the remote ammine ligand is bound at a distance of 2.5870 (19) Å. The N—Ag—N angle between the shortly bonded ligands is 173.74 (7)°. The deviation of N—Ag—N angles including the remote ammine ligand from 90° [85.44 (6) and 110.82 (6)°] are probably due to hydrogen bonding of the ammine ligands to F atoms of the anions.

Displacement ellipsoids are drawn at the 70% probability level and H atoms are shown with an arbitrary radius. [Symmetry code: (i) −x + 1, −y, −z + 1.]

3. Supramolecular features

As a result of the short Ag1⋯Ag2 contacts, corrugated strands of alternating [Ag(NH₃)₃]⁺ and [Ag(NH₃)₂]⁺ cations occur where the [Ag(NH₃)₃]⁺ cations form the kinks which are connected by the [Ag(NH₃)₂]⁺ cations. The strands run parallel to the c axis (Fig. 2). Similar metallophilic interactions have been observed in the ammine copper(I) fluoride {[Cu(NH₃)₃]₂[Cu₂(NH₃)₄]}F₄·4NH₃ (Woidy et al., 2015 ). However, the cuprophilic interactions are only observed between the diammine copper(I) cations forming linear strands whereas the triammine copper(I) cations do not show such interactions.

Figure 2
A section of the crystal structure in a view along [100], showing a corrugated strand of complex cations running along [001]. The argentophilic interactions are drawn as red dashed bonds between the Ag^I atoms and N—H⋯F hydrogen bonds are shown as dashed lines. [SnF₆]²⁻ anions are shown as polyhedra to highlight their positions relative to the the kinks of the strand. Displacement ellipsoids are as in Fig. 1

In the title structure, the fluoride anions reside above and below the cation strands and connect neighbouring strands via N—H⋯F hydrogen bonds, whereas the [SnF₆]²⁻ anions lie on the sides of the strands, also connecting neighbouring ones. The free fluoride ion (F4) is an acceptor of six hydrogen bonds (Fig. 3). Its coordination environment resembles an octahedron with one longer edge. It interconnects the Ag⋯Ag strands along the a-axis. The [SnF₆]²⁻ anion interconnects four of the Ag⋯Ag strands (Fig. 4). Four of the six F atoms bonded to the Sn atom are acceptors of four hydrogen bonds (two regular, two bifurcated), the other two F atoms are acceptors of three hydrogen bonds. The diammine silver(I) cations only form regular hydrogen bonds, whereas the triammine silver(I) cations form regular as well as bifurcated hydrogen bonds. The bifurcated hydrogen bonds bridge four edges of each [SnF₆]²⁻ octahedron. Overall, a rather complex three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network results (Fig. 5). Numerical details of the hydrogen-bonding interactions are summarized in Table 1.

4. Synthesis and crystallization

870 mg of CsAgSnF₇ were reacted with approximately 10 ml of anhydrous liquid ammonia at 195 K. Upon contact, the greenish colour of the educt vanished and a white powder was observed. This indicates that Ag^II was reduced to Ag^I and ammonia was oxidized to N₂. From this white powder, colorless crystals grew within three months of storage at 233 K of which a suitable one was selected for the diffraction experiment. The role of the Cs atoms remains unclear.

Special details top

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.
