title: Bis(quinolin-8-ol)silver(I) 2-hydr-oxy-3,5-dinitro-benzoate.
abstract: The title compound, [Ag(C(9)H(7)NO)(2)](C(7)H(3)N(2)O(7)), was prepared from 3,5-dinitro-salicylic acid (DNS), quinolin-8-ol and AgNO(3). The Ag(I) atom is coordinated by two N atoms and two O atoms from two quinolin-8-ols in a roughly planar [maximum deviation = 0.223 (2) Å] environment. The two quinolin-8-ol ligands are bent slightly with respect to each other, making a dihedral angle of 9.55 (9)°. The DNS anion inter-acts with the silver complex through O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
