Abstract: | The title compound, [Ag2(C6H4N4)(N3)]n, was obtained under hydrothermal conditions at 433 K. The asymmetric unit of the orthorhombic space group (Pna21) consists of two Ag+ cations, an anionic 5‐(pyridin‐4‐yl)tetrazolide (4‐ptz−) ligand and an anionic azide ligand. Both Ag+ centres are coordinated by four N atoms, forming a distorted tetrahedral coordination environment. When all the component ions are viewed as 4‐connected nodes, the whole three‐dimensional network can be regarded topologically as a new kind of 4,4,4,4‐connected net with the Schläfli symbol (4.85)(42.84)(43.83)2. |
