catena‐Poly[[[μ‐1,3‐bis(diphenylphosphanyl)propane‐κ2P:P′][O‐ethyl (4‐methoxyphenyl)phosphonodithioato‐κ2S,S′]silver(I)] chloroform monosolvate]

Reaction of a mixture of AgOAc, Lawesson's reagent 2,4‐bis(4‐methoxyphenyl)‐1,3‐dithiadiphosphetane‐2,4‐disulfide] and 1,3‐bis(diphenylphosphanyl)propane (dppp) under ultrasonic treatment gave the title compound, {Ag(C₉H₁₂O₂PS₂)(C₂₇H₂₆P₂)]·CHCl₃}_n, a novel one‐dimensional chain based on the in situ‐generated bipodal ligand ArP(OEt)S₂]^? (Ar = 4‐methoxyphenyl). The compound consists of bidentate bridging 1,3‐bis(diphenylphosphanyl)propane (dppp) and in situ‐generated bidentate chelating ArP(OEt)S₂]^? ligands. The dppp ligand links the Ag{ArP(OEt)S₂}] subunit to form an achiral one‐dimensional infinite chain. These achiral chains are packed into chiral crystals by virtue of van der Waals interactions. No π–π interactions are observed in the crystal structure.
