Influence of the Anion on the Structure of Bis(methylthio)methane Supramolecular Coordination Complexes
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A series of coordination networks has been synthesized by the self-assembly of the small bis(methylthio)methane building block and AgX (X = NO 3 - ( 1 ), ClO 4 - ( 2, 3 ), p- TsO - ( 4 ), CF 3 COO - ( 5 ), CF 3 CF 2 CF 2 COO - ( 6 ), CF 3 SO 3 - ( 7 ), C 6 H 5 COO - ( 8 ), CH 3 SO 3 - ( 9 ), and HOOCCF 2 CF 2 COO - ( 10 )) in order to rationalize the effect of the size of the anions and the ligands upon the structure adopted by the supramolecular coordination network. In complexes 1 − 7, each silver(I) is coordinated with sulfur atoms from three different ligands. They form very similar two-dimensional solid-state organizations. The structures consist of layers, made up of Ag and bis(methylthio)methane ligands only, in which the anions complete the tetrahedral coordination of the silver atoms. Upon closer inspection, the neutral 2D networks may be sorted into two distinct classes. Group 1 incorporates the smallest anions, NO 3 - and ClO 4 -, whereas the more elongated anions, p -TsO -, CF 3 COO -, CF 3 CF 2 CF 2 COO -, and CF 3 SO 3 -, are found in group 2. The main difference between these groups is in the organization of the neutral layers. In group 1, the repeat unit consists of a large 14-membered metallomacrocycle, whereas in group 2, the metallomacrocycle consists of 10-membered rings. The two polymorphs of the perchlorate complexes are structurally comparable. Dimeric units are the basis for the other three complexes. In benzoate 8, the dimers are formed with two anions. They are linked by ligand molecules to form a 1D polymeric chain that adopts a distorted hexagonal packing. The silver atoms have a distorted triangular bipyramidal coordination and the Ag···Ag distance is 2.911 Å. In complex 9, two ligands each bridge a pair of silver atoms to form a dimer (Ag···Ag = 3.243 Å). A neutral 1D coordination polymer is obtained when anions connect, in a dibridging mode, the silver atoms of adjacent dimers [Ag(CH 3 SCH 2 SCH 3 )] 2 . Weak hydrogen interactions between chains result in a 3D network. The silver coordination is triangular bipyramidal. Complex 10 is also a 1D coordination polymer with a centrosymmetric dimer. Two ligands and two anions are coordinated to the silver atoms. The Ag···Ag contact is 3.067 Å. A 1D coordination polymer is obtained through H-bonding between carboxylate groups. The stoichiometries of the complexes are independent of the initial metal-to-ligand ratios and are not influenced by the solvent of recrystallization.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
