(2,2′-Bipyridine)Saccharinatosilver(I)

Abstract

The title complex, [Ag(C7H4NO3S)(C10H8N2)], has a mononuclear structure in which the AgI ion is coordinated by two N atoms from 2,2′-bipyridine and one N atom from saccharinate, forming a distorted T-shaped (or trigonal-planar) AgN3 arrangement. The bite angle of bpy is 71.69 (6)°, which contributes significantly to the distortion of the coordination geometry. Mol-ecules are connected by C - H⋯O and π(bpy)-π(bpy) inter-actions with a centroid-centroid separation of 3.6741 (13) Å. © International Union of Crystallography 2007.
