title: Bis(ethyl 2-amino-4-thia-zoleacetato-κN)silver(I) nitrate.
abstract: In the title complex, [Ag(C(7)H(10)N(2)O(2)S)(2)]NO(3), the Ag(I) cation is bicoordinated in an almost linear configuration by two N-donor atoms of the thia-zole rings of two distinct ethyl 2-amino-4-thia-zoleacetate (EATA) ligands. The dihedral angle between the two thia-zole rings is 49.9°. A weak Ag⋯O (2.729 Å) inter-action between the Ag cation and one of the O atoms from the nitrate anion is observed, and a pseudo-dimer is formed through a weak Ag⋯S (3.490 Å) inter-action between the Ag cation and the S atom of the thia-zole ring of a symmetry-related mol-ecule. In the crystal structure, there are intra- and inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The occurrence of inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds results in the formation of two-dimensional sheets parallel to (010), which are further linked into a three-dimensional network through weak C-H⋯O inter-actions.
