Poly[bis[μ-1,3-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)propane-κ2P:P′]-di-μ-thiocyanato-κ2S:N;κ2N:S-disilver(I)]

Abstract

In the title coordination polymer, [Ag2(NCS)2(C27H26P2)2]n, two centrosymmetrically related Ag+ cations are linked by two thiocyanate anions into binuclear eight-membered macrocycles. The Ag...Ag separation within the macrocycle is 5.4400 (6) Å. The distorted tetrahedral coordination about each metal atom is completed by the P atoms of two bridging 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)propane ligands, forming polymeric ribbons parallel to the a axis.
