Silica-Organometallic One-Dimensional Hybrid Employing a Ag-π Bond Connecting Alternating Ag(NO) and Octavinylsilsesquioxane.

Layering AgNO in alcohol onto octavinylsilsesquioxane (OVS) in CHCl results in a one-dimensional coordination polymer, {Ag(NO)(OVS)·solvents} (), consisting of unprecedented flat weakly bonded Ag(NO) alternating with the firmly covalent OVS through Ag-π bonds. The preferential assembling medium for is proven to be alcohols, where a 4:1 silver-OVS adduct is detected by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. The present outcomes may assist our knowledge of particular interactions for supramolecular architectures of a polynuclear silver system built from OVS containing eight pendent olefin tails.
