| Abstract: | The new complex of Ag(I) with an organoselenium compound was synthesized. The 2 : 1 (silver : ligand) stoichiometry of the complex and chelating mode of the hetero-selenium ligand have been considered on the basis of elemental analyses, IR, Raman, 1H and 13C NMR, and thermogravimetric data. The IR spectrum of the complex supported two sites of coordination (selenium and nitrogen atoms of quinoline moiety). The bidentate ligand was bound to selenium via oxygen atoms of the carboxylate group. The complex demonstrated the non-electrolyte nature. Nano-scale range of Ag(I) complex has been estimated according to X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscopy. |
