| Summary: | In the binuclear title compound, [Ag2(C11H11N3)2](CF3O3S)2, the complex cation is centrosymmetric, with the unique Ag+ cation coordinated by two pyridine N atoms from two symmetry-related N-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)pyridin-2-amine ligands in a geometry slightly distorted from linear [N—Ag—N 161.02 (7)°]. This set-up leads to the formation of a 14-membered cyclic dimer. The two pyridine rings coordinated to the Ag+ cation are tilted by 80.19 (7)° with respect to each other. Intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen-bonding interactions between the cyclic dimer and the anion exist. A two-dimensional network parallel to the ac plane is constructed by three weak Ag...(O,N) interactions as well as an F...F contact of 2.890 (4) Å. |
