Coordination chemistry of bis(2-pyridylimine) ligands with Ag(I): formation of two structurally different coordination polymers and one metallocycle controlled by linker and the solvent system
Reaction of equimolar amounts of AgClO 4 and bis[4-(2-pyridylmethyleneamino)phenyl] methane (L 1 ) or bis[4-(2-pyridylmethyleneamino)phenyl] ether (L 2 ) in a 1:1 solvent mixture of CH 3 CN and CH 2 Cl 2 leads to the formation of two infinite coordination polymers of the composition {[Ag(L 1 )]ClO 4...
