Abstract

A series of eight silver(I) trifluoroacetate complexes based on aromatic ligands bearing terminal ethynyl and ethenyl groups on separate pendent arms has been synthesized. Single-crystal X-ray analysis of the complexes provided detailed information on the influence of argentophilicity, ligand disposition and orientation, and the co-existence of three types of silver–carbon bonding (silver–ethynide, silver–ethenyl and silver–aromatic) in coordination network construction, as well as the roles played by weak π–π stacking and anion–π interactions in supramolecular assembly.
