Engineering silver(I) coordination networks through hydrogen bonding.
The silver(I) coordination networks [Ag2(mu-O2CCF3)2(mu-NN)2](infinity) exist as a polymer of macrocycles or a double-stranded polymer when NN = 1,2-C6H4[NHC(O)-4-C5H4N]2 or 1,2-C6H4[NHC(O)-3-C5H4N]2, respectively. Crystal engineering of the polymers is achieved through interchain hydrogen bonds.
