Novel Ternary Alkali Metal Silver Acetylides M(I)AgC(2) (M(I)=Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs).
Three different packings of (1)(infinity)[Ag(C(2))(2/2)(-)] chains (represented by rods in the picture) have been found in the crystal structures of the first ternary alkali metal silver acetylides, which were obtained by the reaction of M(I)C(2)H (M(I)=Li-Cs) with AgI in liquid ammonia and subsequent heating of the remaining residue to 120 degrees C.
