Two novel silver(I) coordination polymers: poly[(μ2‐2‐aminopyrimidine‐κ2N1:N3)bis(μ3‐thiocyanato‐κ3S:S:S)disilver(I)] and poly[(2‐amino‐4,6‐dimethylpyrimidine‐κN)(μ3‐thiocyanato‐κ3N:S:S)silver(I)]

2‐Aminopyrimidine (L1) and 2‐amino‐4,6‐dimethylpyrimidine (L2) have been used to create the two novel title complexes, Ag₂(NCS)₂(C₄H₅N₃)]_n, (I), and Ag(NCS)(C₆H₉N₃)]_n, (II). The structures of complexes (I) and (II) are mainly directed by the steric properties of the ligands. In (I), the L1 ligand is bisected by a twofold rotation axis running through the amine N atom and opposite C atoms of the pyrimidine ring. The thiocyanate anion adopts the rare μ₃‐κ³S coordination mode to link three tetrahedrally coordinated Ag^I ions into a two‐dimensional honeycomb‐like 6³ net. The L1 ligands further extend the two‐dimensional sheet to form a three‐dimensional framework by bridging Ag^I ions in adjacent layers. In (II), with three formula units in the asymmetric unit, the L2 ligand bonds to a single Ag^I ion in a monodentate fashion, while the thiocyanate anions adopt a μ₃‐κ¹N,κ²S coordination mode to link the AgL2 subunits to form two‐dimensional sheets. These layers are linked by N—H...N hydrogen bonds between the noncoordinated amino H atoms and both thiocyanate and pyrimidine N atoms.
