Di-μ-bromido-tris(triphenylphosphine)-1κP,2κ²P-disilver(I) tetrahydrofuran 0.85-solvate

Abstract

Key indicators: single-crystal X-ray study; T = 293 K; mean (C-C) = 0.005 Å; disorder in solvent or counterion; R factor = 0.076; wR factor = 0.115; data-toparameter ratio = 16.4.In the title binuclear silver(I) complex, [Ag 2 Br 2 (C 18 H 15 P) 3 ]Á-0.85C 4 H 8 O, the two independent silver(I) ions are briged by two bromide ions. One Ag I ion is coordinated by two triphenylphosphine groups with a square-planar geometry, while the second is coordinated by one triphenylphine group with a trigonal-planar geometry. The structure is very similar to that of the dichloromethane solvate reported by Zhu,The tetrahydrofuran solvent molecule is disordered and was refined with a fixed occupancy of 0.85.
