Polysulfonylamines. LXXXVI. Silver(I) Bis(4-fluorobenzenesulfonyl)amide Monohydrate

Abstract

The title compound, [Ag(C12H8F2NO4S2)(H2O)]n, consists of infinite strands [(RSO2)2N–Ag(μ-H2O)]∞ (R = 4-fluorophenyl), in which Ag extends its coordination number to five by accepting one Ag—O bond from each of the (RSO2)2N− ligands in the adjacent repeat units. By means of OH⋯O hydrogen bonds the strands are associated to form parallel layers. These display an inner polar region of Ag atoms, H2O molecules and N(SO2)2 groups, outer apolar regions of stacked benzene fragments, and interlayer regions consisting of F atoms.
