Aqua(trifluoromethanesulfonato)bis(1,3,7-trimethylpurine-2,6-dione)silver(I)
In the title compound, [Ag(CF3SO3)(C8H10N4O2)2(H2O)], the AgI atom is coordinated by two caffeine N atoms and, at longer distances, two O atoms of a coordinated water molecule and the trifluoromethanesulfonate anion, resulting in an AgN2O2 seesaw geometry. The caffeine molecules are roughly coplanar...

| Summary: | In the title compound, [Ag(CF3SO3)(C8H10N4O2)2(H2O)], the AgI atom is coordinated by two caffeine N atoms and, at longer distances, two O atoms of a coordinated water molecule and the trifluoromethanesulfonate anion, resulting in an AgN2O2 seesaw geometry. The caffeine molecules are roughly coplanar [dihedral angle = 5.81 (5)°]. In the crystal, molecules self-assemble into a linear supramolecular chain along the c axis via O—H...O hydrogen bonds involving the coordinated water moledcule and carbonyl O atoms. The packing is consolidated by weak C—H...O interactions. |
