Catena-Poly[[Nitratosilver(I)]-Mu-2,2 '-Dithio-bis(5-nitropyridine)]

In the title compound, [ Ag( NO3)( C10H6N4O4S2)](n), the Ag+ cation has a five-coordinate environment completed by two N and two S atoms of the 2,20-dithiobis( 5-nitropyridine) ligand and by one O atom from the nitrate group. The Ag coordination geometry is best described as distorted trigonal-bipyramidal. The material is composed of one-dimensional extended polymeric chains in which the 2,2'-dithiobis( 5-nitropyridine) ligand bridges Ag atoms.
