2D d Metal Assembly Frameworks: Construction of Metal-organic Architecture with Metal Thiocyanate and Dipyridyl Spacer.

A new coordination polymer based on Group IB metal thiocyanates, [Ag (NCS)(dpds)] ( 1) (dpds = 2,2′-dipyridyldisulfide), has been synthesized by the pre-assembly method and characterized by X-ray crystallography. In 1, the Ag center adopts tetrahedral coordination geometry and the 2-D undulated layers of (4, 4) topology network is formed by dpds ligand with zigzag NCSAg chains.
