Abstract:The coordination chemistry of the flexible N-donor ligand E-3-pyridylvinyl benzoxazole (3-PVBO) with various silver salts has been investigated for the first time. Four novel coordination compounds of silver, have been synthesized and structurally characterized. 3-PVBO adopts two different configurations, i.e., syn-and anti-, and offers structural variation in the series with different anions. In both 1 and 2, it adopts syn-configuration, and thus, 16-membered metallacycles are formed. In 3, with the trifluoro… Show more
