title: Self-assembled polymers of silver(I) with a chiral diphosphine ligand.
abstract: Silver(I) salts, AgX, form self-assembled polymers with the chiral diphosphine ligand R,R-trans-C(6)H(10)(NHCO-2-C(6)H(4)PPh(2))(2), 1, of formula {Ag(2)X(2)(μ-1)}(n) and ring-opening polymerization of the trans chelate complex [Ag(1)]X has given the helical polymer [{Ag(μ-1)}(n)]X(n), when X = CF(3)SO(3).
