Synthesis and Structure of {（Tab-Tab）[Ag2（μ-Cl）41.2MeCN}n （Tab = 4-（Trimethylammonio）benzenethiolate）

In the presence of Et4NCl·H2O, reaction of AgCl with TabHPF6 in MeCN afforded the title complex {（Tab-Tab）[Ag2（μ-Cl）4]-2MeCN}n 1. 1 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbcn with a = 16.782（3）, b = 6.8358（14）, c = 26.194（5） A, V = 3004.9（10） A3, Z = 8,μ = 1.817 mm^-1, Dc = 1.711 g/cm3, T= 223 K, C1lH16AgCl2N2S, Mr= 387.10, F（000） = 1544, S= 1.160, R = 0.0528 and wR = 0.0896 for 2732 observed reflections with I 〉 2σ（I）. 1 contains a 1D linear [Ag2Cl4]n^2n- chain coupled with the [Tab-Tab]2＋ dications. Intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions between the protons of methyl groups from the Tab-Tab dications and the chlorides result in the formation of a 2D hydrogen-bonded network.
