Crystal structure of a twisted-ribbon type double-stranded Ag^I coordination polymer: catena-poly[[silver(I)-μ₃-bis-(pyridin-3-ylmeth-yl)sulfane-κ³N:N':S] nitrate].

ABSTRACT: The asymmetric unit in the title compound, {[Ag(C₁₂H₁₂N₂S)]·NO₃} _n or {[AgL]·NO₃} _n , L = bis-(pyridin-3-ylmeth-yl)sulfane, consists of an Ag^I cation bound to a pyridine N atom of an L ligand and an NO₃^- anion that is disordered over two orientations in an 0.570 (17):0.430 (17) occupancy ratio. Each Ag^I cation is coordinated by two pyridine N atoms from adjacent L ligands to form an infinite zigzag chain along [110]. In addition, each Ag^I ion binds to an S donor from a third L ligand in an adjacent parallel chain, resulting in the formation of a twisted-ribbon type of double-stranded chain propagating along the
