Bipy, Phen, and P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃ in the Synthesis of Cationic Silver(I) Complexes; the Solid‐State Structures of [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]AgOTf and [Ag(phen)₂]OTf The reaction of [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]AgX ( 1a , X = OTf; 1b , X = OClO₃) with equimolar amounts of L^capL ( 2a , L^capL = 2, 2′‐bipyridine, bipy; 2b , L^capL = 4, 4′‐dimethyl‐2, 2′‐bipyridine, bipy′; 2c , L^capL = 1, 10‐phenanthroline, phen) leads to the formation of the cationic complexes {[P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]Ag(L^capL)}⁺X^— (L^capL = bipy: 3a , X = OTf; 3b , X = ClO₄; L^capL = bipy′: 3c , X = OTf; 3d , X = ClO₄; L^capL = phen: 3e , X = OTf; 3f , X = ClO₄) in which the building blocks L^capL and P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃ act as bidentate chelating ligands and are datively‐bound to the silver atom. Spectroscopic studies reveal that on the NMR time‐scale the phosphane group is dynamic with exchanging the respective Me₂NCH₂ built‐in arms. While complex 3e is stable in the solid‐state, it appeared that solutions of 3e start to decompose upon precipitation of colloidal silver when they are heated or irradiated with light, respectively. Appropriate work‐up of the reaction mixture allows the isolation of the phosphane P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃ ( 5 ) along with [Ag(phen)₂]OTf ( 4 ). The solid‐state structures of neutral 1a and cationic 4 are reported. Mononuclear 1a crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with the cell parameters a = 16.7763(2), b = 14.7892(2), c = 25.44130(10)Å, β = 106.1260(10), V = 6063.83(11)ų and Z = 4 with 8132 observed unique reflections (R₁ = 0.0712), while 4 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with the cell parameters a = 26.749(3), b = 7.1550(10), c = 26.077(3)Å, β = 113.503(2), V = 4576.8(10)ų and Z = 4 with 6209 observed unique reflections (R₁ = 0.0481). The unit cell of 1a consists of two independent molecules. In both molecules the silver atom possesses a distorted tetrahedral coordination sphere and a boat‐like conformation for the six‐membered AgPNCH₂C_2/phenyl cycles is found. In 4 , as typical for 1a , the silver atom possesses the coordination number 4. The two phen ligands are tilted by 40.63°. The OTf group is acting as non‐coordinating counter ion.

The crystal structure of 1 is built up by dinuclear units, which are bridged by dicyanamide ligands. However, the crystal structure of 2 corresponds to a onedimensional coordination polymer, bridged by dicyanamide anions.

The terminal Se? Cl bonds (average 2.317 Å in 1 , 2.223 Å in 2 ) are much shorter than the Se? Cl bridges (av. 2.661 Å in 1 , 2.652 Å in 2 ). The stereochemical activity of the Se^IV lone electron pair causes severe distortion of the central Se₂Cl₂ ring in the centrosymmetric Se₂Cl₁₀^2? ion. The vibrational spectra of the anions are reported.
