Abstract
All six AgI atoms of the title compound, [Ag6(μ3-C5H4NS)6], are bridged through the six S atoms of the six pyridine-2-thiolate ligands to form an Ag6 cluster. Each of the six AgI atoms exhibits a distorted trigonal coordination geometry, with two thiolate S atoms and an N atom from three pyridine-2-thiolate ligands. The Ag—S distances are in the range 2.459 (3)–2.488 (3) Å and the Ag—N bond distances range from 2.307 (8) to 2.320 (8) Å. Each thiolate S atom bridges two AgI atoms. In the hexamer, the six AgI atoms are in a nearly perfect octahedral configuration and this hints at a weak AgI⋯AgI interaction. The molecule is located on a centre of inversion, with only one half constituting the asymmetric unit.
