Bis(isonicotinamide-κN)silver(I) tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate aceto­nitrile disolvate

ABSTRACT: The reaction of silver(I) triflouro­methane­sulfonate with isonicotinamide in aceto­nitrile produces a polymeric structure held together by discrete hydrogen bonds, regium bonds between the metal atom and the solvent mol­ecules, and metal–metal inter­actions. The central AgI atom of the title salt, [Ag(INAM)2](CF3SO3)·2CH3CN, where INAM is isonicotinamide (C6H6N2O), is twofold coordinated by the pyridine N atoms of two isonicotinamide ligands creating a slightly distorted linear mol­ecular geometry. The formation of polymeric chains {[Ag(INAM)2]+}n, held together by discrete hydrogen bonds through the amide group of the INAM ligand leaves voids for non-coordinating aceto­nitrile mol­ecules that inter­act the silver metal center via regium bonds.
