All reagents and solvents were used as obtained without further purification. Silver cinnamate (1 mmol, 255 mg) and 1,6-diaminohexane (1 mmol, 116 mg) were dissolved in an ammonia solution (10 ml, 30% and the mixture was stirred for about 20 min at room temperature. The resulting clear colorless solution was kept in air and, after slow evaporation of the solvent for a week, large colorless crystals of (I) formed at the bottom of the vessel. The crystals were isolated, washed three times with water and dried in a vacuum desiccator using anhydrous CaCl2 (yield 78.7%). Analysis found: C 44.19, H 6.72, N 6.82%; calculated for C15H27AgN2O4: C 44.24, H 6.68, N 6.88%.
All H atoms were placed in idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with N—H distances of 0.90 Å, C—H distances of 0.96 Å and O—H distances of 0.94–1.0 Å, and with Uiso(H) values fixed at 0.08 Å2. The coordinates of the water H atoms were localized by applying the HYDROGEN program (Nardelli, 1999).

Experimental. The CHN elemental analyses were performed on a Perkin-Elmer elemental analyzer. |
Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

A lot of silver(I) complexes with carboxylate anions as counter-ions or ligands have been structurally characterized over the past 30 years because of the wide usage of these compounds in many fields (Graham et al., 1996; Pingrong et al., 1998; Nomiya et al., 2000; Kristiansson, 2001). Recently, we have reported a few dozen silver(I)–carboxylate complexes with various amines and imines, all of which have been structurally characterized (Usman et al., 2003; You et al., 2004; Zhu et al., 1999, 2000; Zhu, Usman et al., 2003; Zhu, Zhang et al., 2003; Zheng, Tong, Zhu & Chen, 2001; Zheng, Tong, Zhu, Fang & Chen, 2001). As an extension of our work on the structural characterization of these silver(I) carboxylates, the title complex, (I), is reported here.
Complex (I) is a polymeric 1,6-diaminohexanesilver(I) complex. Each of the smallest repeat units in the complex contains a 1,6-diaminohexanesilver(I) cation, a cinnamate anion and two lattice water molecules, as shown in Fig. 1. In the cation, the Ag atom is in a linear coordination environment and is coordinated by two N atoms from two 1,6-diaminohexane ligands. The Ag1—N1 and Ag1—N2 bond lengths [2.133 (4) and 2.155 (4) Å, respectively] are slightly longer than the average Ag—N bond lengths [2.126 (4) Å] reported for a similar silver complex with 1,6-diaminohexane (Zhu, Wang et al., 2003). The N1—Ag1—N2 –angle [174.47 (15) °], indicating a slightly distorted linear geometry for atom Ag1, is comparable to the value observed in another similar silver complex [172.37 (8)°; Zhu, Liu et al., 2003]. In the anion, the dihedral angle between the plane of the benzene ring and the plane of the carboxy group (O1/C7/O2) is 25.1 (4) °. The O2—C7—C8—C9 and C7—C8—C9—C10 torsion angles are −168.9 (4) and 176.8 (4) °, respectively. Atom C9 lies in the plane of the phenyl ring. The aminohexane chain is almost planar, the largest displacement from the least-squares plane being only 0.17 Å. This plane makes a dihedral angle of 4.2 (2)° with teh plane of the phenyl ring.
In the crystal, the cinnamate anions are located among the chains. The Ag—N bonds link the amine molecules and the Ag atoms into a zigzag chain along the c axis. Adjacent chains interact with the anions via the lattice water molecules, thus forming layers along the bc direction. (Fig. 2). These layers are linked together by the hydrogen bonds listed in Table 1, thus forming a three-dimensional structure.
