The structure of C7H8-2AgNOs was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The silver atoms are connected in chains by • • -• -O• • links of the nitrate groups. One double bond of the olefin forms the third ligand about the silver atom; the axis of the double bond lies approximately in the plane of the • • •Ag• • •O link of the chain so that the coordination about Ag is triangular-planar. Both double bonds of the olefin are coordinated to Ag atoms, so that the olefin forms a cross-link between two Ag-NOa chains.
