Abstract

The reaction of [Ph3PAgI]4 with sodium phenylacetate in MeOH and CH2Cl2 at room temperature gave rise to a binuclear silver complex with triphenylphosphine and phenylacetate mixed ligands, [Ph3PAg(O2CCH2Ph)]2. The crystal and molecular structure of the complex has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The space group is\(P\bar 1\) witha=9.198(2),b=9.516(2),c=13.842(3) Å, α=102.00(3), β=108.34(3), γ=93.58(3)°,Z=1, andDc=1.506 g cm−3. The silver atoms are each coordinated by one phosphorus atom from triphenylphosphine and two oxygen atoms from the carboxylate groups in a T-shape. The complex is further characterized by its IR,1H, and31P NMR spectra.
