Bis(μ(2)-3,5-diisopropyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole-κN:N)bis-[(nitrato-κO)silver(I)].

ABSTRACT: The neutral N-heterocycle in the title centrosymmetric dinuclear compound, [Ag(2)(NO(3))(2)(C(8)H(15)N(3))(2)], bridges two metal atoms through its imino N atoms. The N-Ag-N skeleton is bent [N-Ag-N = 127.2 (3)°]; as one of two O atoms of the nitrate anion is nearly coplanar with this N-Ag-N skeleton [Ag-O = 2.63 (1) Å], the coordination geometry around the Ag(I) atom is regarded as trigonal-planar. One of the two isopropyl groups is disordered over two positions in respect of the methyl groups in a 1:1 ratio. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonding is observed between the nitrate groups and triazole ligands.
