Abstract
The reaction of Ag2O and 2-amino-6-methylpyridine (AMP) with nicotinic acid (HNA) and isonicotinic acid (HINA), respectively, afforded two silver(I) complexes, [Ag2(NA)2(AMP)2]n (I) and [Ag2(INA)2(AMP)2]n (II). Both complexes were characterized by elemental analyses and X-ray single-crystal diffraction. Complex I is a pyridine-3-carboxylate bridged polynuclear silver(I) complex, in which the Ag atom is in a tetrahedral geometry, while complex II is a pyridine-4-carboxylate bridged polynuclear silver(I) complex, in which the Ag atom is in a distorted T-shaped geometry. The crystal of I is monoclinic: space group P21/c, a = 8.079(2), b = 17.150(3), c = 8.912(2) Å, β = 98.106(2)°, V = 1222.5(5) Å3, Z = 4. The crystal of II is monoclinic: space group P21/c, a = 7.225(1), b = 12.049(1), c = 15.053(2) Å, β = 102.050(1)°, V = 1281.6(3) Å3, Z = 4.
