(Methanol-κO)(perchlorato-κO)bis-(triphenyl-phosphine-κP)silver(I).

In the title complex, [Ag(ClO4)(CH3OH)(C18H15P)2], the angles around the central Ag+ ion indicate that it is in a distorted tetrahedral coordination. The coordination sphere of silver is formed by two P atoms of two triphenylphosphine ligands, one O atom of a perchlorate anion and one O atom of a methanol molecule. The crystal structure is stablized by a bifurcated intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bond, involving the O—H donor from methanol and two acceptor O atoms from the perchlorate anion, so forming a zigzag chain propagating in [010].

(Perchlorato-κO)tris­(triphenyl­phosphine-κP)silver(I)

In the title complex, [Ag(C18H15P)3(ClO4)], the silver coordination environment is dominated by the distorted P3AgO tetrahedron in which Ag—O = 2.608 (12) Å and the Ag—P bond lengths are 2.5663 (17), 2.5076(16) and 2.5450 (17) Å. The perchlorate O-atoms are disordered over two positions in a 0.584 (14):0.416 (14) ratio.

(1,10-Phenanthroline-κ2N,N′)(triphenyl­phosphine-κP)silver(I) trifluoro­methane­sulfonate

The structure of the title complex, [Ag(C12H8N2)(C18H15P)]CF3SO3, is based on a distorted trigonal–planar N2P coordination of the AgI ion, provided by two N atoms of the bidentate phenanthroline ligand and one P atom of the triphenylphosphine ligand. The phenanthroline ligand and one phenyl ring of the triphenylphosphine ligand almost lie in one plane (maximum deviation = 0.014 Å from the best planes). The crystal structure may be stabilized by an intermolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bond between the phenanthroline ligand and the O atom of the trifluoromethanesulfonate anion.

A tetra­silver(I)ditungsten(VI) cluster with sulfide and bis­(diphenyl­phosphino)methane ligands

The asymmetric unit of the title complex, [Ag4W2S8(C25H22P2)3]·2C3H7NO, tris[μ2-bis(diphenylphosphino)methane]-3:6κ2 P:P′;4:5κ2 P:P′;5:6κ2 P:P′-μ5-sulfido-2:3:4:5:6κ5 S-μ3-sulfido-1:3:4κ3 S-tetra-μ2-sulfido-1:3κ2 S;1:4κ2 S;2:5κ2 S;2:6κ2 S-disulfido-1κS,2κS-tetrasilver(I)ditungsten(VI) N,N-dimethylformamide disolvate, contains two [WS4]2− anions, four silver cations, three bidentate–bridging bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (dppm) ligands and two N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) solvent molecules. The coordination geometry of each Ag atom is distorted tetrahedral. Two Ag ions are coordinated by μ2-S and μ5-S atoms, and by two P atoms from two dppm ligands, while the other two Ag atoms are coordinated by μ2-S, μ3-S and μ5-S atoms, and by one P atom from a dppm ligand.
