M. Wen et al., A bent two-coordinate silver(I) complex with 2,2 ',3,3 '-tetrahydro-4,4 '-dithia-1,1 '-binaphylidene, ACT CRYST E, 57, 2001, pp. m246-m247
The Ag I complex of 2,2',3,3' -tetrahydro-4,4'-dithia-1,1'-binaphylidene (t
tp) has been synthesized and its molecular structure determined as its PF6-
salt, i.e. (2,2',3,3'-tetrahydro4,4'-dithia-1,1'--binaphylidene)silver(I)
hexafluorophosphate, [Ag(C18H16S2)]PF6. The Ag-I ion has a distorted linear
geometry comprised of the two S atoms of ttp, with an Ag-S distance of 2.4
889 (8) Angstrom and an S-Ag-S angle of 157.48 (4)degrees; the cation has t
wofold symmetry. This coordination mode results in the formation of a nine-
membered ring.
