Bis[µ-1,2-diphenyl-N,N'-bis-(di-2-pyridyl-methyl-eneamino)ethane-1,2-diimine]disilver(I) bis-(hexa-fluorido-phosphate) acetonitrile disolvate.

In the centrosymmetric dinuclear title compound, [Ag(2)(C(36)H(26)N(8))(2)](PF(6))(2)·2C(2)H(3)N, the Ag(+) ion is bound to four N atoms from two 1,2-diphenyl-N,N'-bis-(di-2-pyridyl-methyl-eneamino)ethane-1,2-diimine ligands in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry. The ligand adopts a twist conformation, coordinating two metal centers by three pyridyl N atoms and one imine N atom and spanning two Ag(+) ions, resulting in the formation of a helical dimeric structure.
