Abstract:A series of new Ag(I) complexes with 2,6-bis[(imidazol-2-yl)thiomethyl]naphthalene (L) and a range of counterions (X−) such as PF6− (1, 2), SbF6− (3), and CF3SO3− (4) was prepared. As shown by SCXRD studies, all of these are 1D coordination polymers with a waved chain motive and general formula {[AgL]X}n. Two methanol solvates containing PF6− (1) and SbF6− (3) counterions are isostructural. The triflate counterion leads to the formation of a topologically equivalent structural motive, with a different conforma… Show more
