In the mononuclear title complex, [Ag(C5H12N2S)(C18H15P)3](CH3COO)·CH3OH, the AgI ion is in a distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry formed by three P atoms from three triphenylphosphane ligands and one S atom from an N,N′-diethylthiourea ligand. In the crystal, the acetate anion is connected to the complex molecule via a pair of N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds [graph-set motif R

2(8)] and the solvent methanol molecule is connected to the anion via an O—H⋯O hydrogen bond. This aggregate is further connected through a weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bond, forming a chain along [100]. In addition, sixfold phenyl embraces with intermolecular distances of 6.6463 (13)–6.667 (2) Å are arranged in a chain along [001]. The combination of hydrogen bonding and phenyl⋯phenyl interactions leads to the formation of a two-dimensional network parallel to (010).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
