Abstract

Five silver(I) complex of 4-amino-3,5-dipropyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole (4-NH2-3,5-Pr2tz) or 4-amino-3,5-dibutyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole (4-NH2-3,5-Bu2tz), namely [Ag2(4-NH2-3,5-Bu2tz)2(NO3)2] (1), [Ag4(4-NH2-3,5-Pr2tz)6(NO3)2](NO3)2 (2), [Ag4(4-NH2-3,5-Pr2tz)6](ClO4)4 (3), [Ag4(4-NH2-3,5-Pr2tz)6](CF3SO3)4 (4) and [Ag4(4-NH2-3,5-Bu2tz)6](BF4)4 (5), have been prepared and structurally characterized by X-ray single crystal diffractions. Based on the structural data, a possible mechanism for the formation of Ag4tz6 cluster has been proposed, involving the formation of a dimer of dimer—(Ag2tz2)2, followed by the replacement of counterions by two additional triazoles.
