Abstract: | A new decanuclear silver(I) compound Ag10(μ8‐S)(dtp)8 dtp=S2P(OEt)2] was isolated from a reaction mixture containing W2S4(dtp)2 and AgN03, and its solid‐state molecular structure was determinated by X‐ray crystallography. The crystallographic study revealed that the compound contains a distorted mono‐capped quasi‐prism Agio] with an octat‐bridging S atom at the center of the prism. The compound (C32H80Ag10O16P8S17, Mr=2592.46) crystallizes in the monoclinic P21/n space group, with a = 1.5111(5) nm, b=2.3656(8) nm, c=2.284(1) nm, β= 96.88(3)°, V=8.107(5) nm3, Z=4 and D,=2.12 g · cm?3. The solution using direct method and full‐matrix least‐squares refinement led to R=0.066, Rw=0.078 for 3928 reflections with I3σ(I). |
