Crystals of [Ag(NCS)(C18H15P)(3)].CHCl3 consist of discrete [Ag(PPh(3)
)(3)(NCS)] molecules, in which the Ag atom is tetrahedrally surrounded
by three P atoms of the PPh(3) groups and the N atom of the isothiocy
anate ligand, and, and chloroform molecules. The coordination polyhedr
on around the Ag atom is distorted with angles at Ag ranging from 102.
58(10) to 114.73(3)degrees. The Ag-N-C angle is 159.6(3)degrees.
