Abstract

In the title compound, [Ag(C4H4N2)]ClO4, pyrazine ligands bridge two symmetry-related Ag atoms [Ag—N = 2.222 (3) Å] to form linear polycationic chains which run along the c axis of the orthorhombic unit cell. The AgI ion has m2m site symmetry. The N atoms of the pyrazine ligand lie on a crystallographic mirror plane and each C atom of this ligand possesses crystallographically imposed disorder with two components of equal occupancy. The Cl atom of the perchlorate anion has m2m site symmetry and the two unique O atoms of this anion lie on a mirror plane. In addition, in the crystal structure, one-dimensional chains are linked through weak interactions involving perchlorate anions [Ag...O = 2.726 (2) Å] into a motif that can be described as a 4(4).6(2) sheet.
