The structure of the title compound, [CHN)Ag](NO), contains subtle differences in ligand, metal, and counter-anion coordination. One quinoxaline ligand uses one of its quinoxaline N atoms to bond to one silver cation. That silver cation is bound to a second quinoxaline which, in turn, is bound to a second silver atom; thereby using both of its quinoxaline N atoms. A nitrate group bonds with one of its O atoms to the first silver and uses the same oxygen to bond to a silver atom (related by symmetry to the second), thereby forming an extended network. The second nitrate group on the other silver bonds two nitrate O atoms; one silver cation therefore has a coordination number of three whereas the second has a coordination number of four. One of the quinoxaline ligands has a disordered ethyl group.
