Abstract

In the title complex, [Ag(NO3)(C10H9N3)4], the nitrate ligand is found to be disordered over two sets of positions, with occupancy factors of 0.473 (5) and 0.527 (5). The Ag(I) ion is located in a square-pyramidal coordination environment formed by four N atoms from four bis-(pyridin-2-yl)amine ligands and one O atom from a nitrate ligand. Weak inter-actions between the Ag(I) ions and the nitrate anions acting in a monodentate mode [Ag⋯O = 2.791 (13) and 2.816 (9) Å for the major component of the nitrate ligand, and 2.865 (8) and 2.837 (8) Å for the minor component] link the complex mol-ecules into a chain along [001]. N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds are observed.
