Sažetak
The synthesis, thermal and spectral characterization and crystal structure of silver(I) complex with picolinamide, [Ag(C6H6N2O)2](NO3)•H2O, are reported. The silver(I) atom is chelated by two picolinamide (pia) ligands in the approximately square planar geometry. The distortion within the coordination environment is mainly imposed by formation of the chelate rings, but it is also observed in two longer (Ag—O) and two shorter (Ag—N) bond lengths. The compound crystallizes in the triclinic space group P–1 with a = 7.1265(2) Å, b = 8.9157(4) Å, c = 12.9527(4) Å, alpha = 83.934(3)°, beta = 86.094(2)°, gamma = 67.023(3)° and Z = 2. Cationic complexes are linked through amide–amide hydrogen bonds of ‘head-to-head’ R22(8) motif leading to infinite chains, while nitrate anions and H2O molecules act only as a cross-link between such four symmetry related cationic chains via hydrogen bonds forming 2D supramolecular double sheets. Therefore, the ‘head-to-head’ amide interactions in [Ag(C6H6N2O)2](NO3)•H2O are robust enough to accommodate usually disruptive NO3– anion and H2O molecule and cloud be regarded as a tool for controlling the assembly of this silver complex.
