Coordination compounds of substituted 1,10-Phenanthrolines and related dipyridyls. IX. Complexes of silver and 4,6,4',6'-Tetramethyl-2,2'-bipyridine

Abstract

The white complexes of silver(1), AgX tmb, where X is Cl, Br, and I, and Ag tmb₂ X, where X is NO₃ and ClO₄, have been obtained but characterization of them was limited by their low solubility. Oxidation to the silver(11) state was carried out with ozone, but such complexes were unstable and could not be isolated from solution.
