Amm. Lanfredi et al., NEW SYNTHESIS AND X-RAY-DIFFRACTION STUDY OF A POLYMERIC FORM OF AG(I)DITHIO-O-TOLUATO, [AG4(S2C-O-C6H4CH3)4]N, Journal of chemical crystallography, 25(1), 1995, pp. 37-41
The title compound was synthesized by CS2 insertion in the C-M bonds o
f the corresponding AgLi''ate'' organometal compound. It contains flat
tened tetrahedral Ag4 units, connected in polymeric chains by intermol
ecular Ag...S interactions. Two Ag atoms and three S atoms are in a di
storted square pyramidal arrangement around each silver atom. The crys
tals are tetragonal, space group 14(1)/a with a = 23.706(2) and c = 12
.934(2) angstrom. The structure was refined to R = 0.032 for 889 refle
ctions.
