One-dimensional silver(I) coordination polymers containing cyclodiphosphazane, cis-{(o-MeOC(6)H(4)O)P(mu-N(t)Bu)}(2).
The 1:1 reaction between the cyclodiphosphazane cis-{(o-MeOC(6)H(4)O)P(mu-N(t)Bu)}(2) (1) and AgOTf afforded one-dimensional Ag(I) coordination polymer [Ag{mu-OTf-kappaO,kappaO}{mu-(o-MeOC(6)H(4)O)P(mu-N(t)Bu)-kappaP,kappaP}(2)](infinity) (2) containing bridging cyclodiphosphazane and trifluoromethanesulfonate (OTf) ligands. The 2:1 reaction of and AgOTf leads to the formation of simple mononuclear complex [Ag{OTf-kappaO,kappaO}({(o-MeOC(6)H(4)O)P(mu-N(t)Bu)-kappaP}(2))(2)] (3) in quantitative yield. Reaction of 1 with AgCN produces a strain-free zig-zag coordination polymer [({(o-MeOC(6)H(4)O)P(mu-N(t)Bu)-kappaP,kappaP}(2))(2)Ag(NCAgCN)](infinity) (4) irrespective of reaction stoichiometry and conditions. In complexes 3 and 4 cyclodiphosphazanes coordinate to Ag(I) centers in a monodentate fashion. Single crystal structures were established for the Ag(I) polymers 2 and 4.
