Anion-Templated Syntheses of Rhombohedral Silver-Alkynyl Cage Compounds

Anion-Templated Syntheses of Rhombohedral Silver-Alkynyl Cage Compounds

A templating anion is a must for the formation of the cage compounds [Ag14(C≡CtBu)12X]OH (X=Cl, Br), in which a rhombic dodecahedron of silver atoms surrounds the central X atom (see picture). The silver atoms are held together by a combination of bridging alkynyl groups (not shown) and argentophili...

Description
Summary:A templating anion is a must for the formation of the cage compounds [Ag14(C≡CtBu)12X]OH (X=Cl, Br), in which a rhombic dodecahedron of silver atoms surrounds the central X atom (see picture). The silver atoms are held together by a combination of bridging alkynyl groups (not shown) and argentophilic Ag⋅⋅⋅Ag interactions. In the absence of the templating anion insoluble polymeric materials are obtained.
