Crystalline Ag(O 3 SOH) was produced by reacting Ag 2 O or silver sulfate with sulfuric acid. The crystals, which are stable only in an extremely dry atmosphere, show a X-ray diffraction pattern with apparent mmm symmetry, with extinction rules inconsistent with any space group and suggestive of the order-disorder (OD) character of the structure. In fact, the specimens studied are monoclinic polytypes, space group P12 1 /c1, a ) 15.140(3) Å, b ) 8.199-(1) Å, c ) 10.721(1) Å, β ) 90.00(1)°, V ) 1330.8(3) Å 3 , Z ) 16, of a whole OD family. The OD approach allowed a successful structure solution; the refinement [R ) 4.25%, R w ) 9.37%, 1449 observed data F 0 > 4σ(F 0 )] showed four different silver ions having a highly distorted octahedral coordination. The mean Ag-O distance is 2.543 Å and one of the silver cations has a seventh oxygen atom at a distance of 2.84(1) Å. Silver hydrogen sulfate in sulfuric acid solution absorbs carbon monoxide reversibly.
