Abstract

In the title compound, [{[(C6H5)3P]Ag}4{NCO}4], a distorted Ag4N4-heterocubane core is set up by four Ag(I) ions being coordinated by the N atoms of the cyanato anions in a μ 3-bridging mode. In addition, a tri-phenyl-phosphine ligand is datively bonded to each of the Ag(I) ions. Intra-molecular Ag⋯Ag distances as short as 3.133 (9) Å suggest the presence of argentophilic (d (10)⋯d (10)) inter-actions. Five moderate-to-weak C-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions are observed in the crystal structure, spanning a three-dimensional network. A region of electron density was treated with the SQUEEZE procedure in PLATON [Spek (2015). Acta Cryst. C71, 9-18] following unsuccessful attempts to model it as being part of disordered tetra-hydro-furan solvent mol-ecules. The given chemical formula and other crystal data do not take into account these solvent mol-ecules.
