The Polymeric Cluster Complex {[(CH₃CH₂)₃NH][WAgS₄].(DMF)}_n

The structure of the anion in catena-poly[triethylaminium [tungsten-di-μ-sulfido-silver-di-μ- sulfido]N,N'-dimethylformamide solvate], {(C₆H₁₆N)[WAgS₄].(C₃H₇NO)}_n, can be viewed as a polymeric chain composed of extended fragments of AgS₂W, which are alternately almost perpendicular to each other. Each metal atom displays approximate tetrahedral coordination with four μ-S atoms. Hydrogen bond interactions exist between the DMF molecule and the [(CH₃CH₂)₃NH]⁺ cation.
