Organoamine silver(i) decatungstate structures: remarkable chemoselectivity and the exploration of the intramolecular redox reaction upon thermolysis

Abstract

Three new inorganic–organic hybrid compounds containing silver(I) coordinated to decatungstate and organic ligands are reported. Formation of one of them is induced by guanine with high chemoselectivity. The oxidation state of tungsten in the thermal decomposition products is dependent on the organic ligands in the coordination sphere of silver(I).
