Popis: We report on a Ag5 coordination polymer and discrete Ag8 and Ag10 dithiophosphate clusters. The cluster formation and structures were affected by the stoichiometric control of the M : L molar ratios used. The cluster [Ag5{S2P(O(i)Pr)2}4]n(PF6)n, , is a monomeric unit within a coordination polymer formed through the reaction between [Ag(CH3CN)4]PF6 and the dithiophosphate ligand, [S2P(O(i)Pr)2](-), used in a M : L molar ratio of 5 : 4. All other clusters formed in the study are discrete units with encapsulated anions within the metal framework. The clusters [Ag8(X){S2P(O(i)Pr)2}6](PF6) (X = F, , Cl, , Br, ) are all cationic and contain monoanionic halogens. The related cluster [Ag8(H/D){S2P(O(i)Pr)2}6](PF6) contains either a hydride or a deuteride ion, and , respectively. The cluster [Ag8(S){S2P(O(i)Pr)2}6], , is neutral due to the di-anionic nature of the encapsulated sulfide anion. Clusters were all formed by reacting [Ag(CH3CN)4]PF6 and [S2P(O(i)Pr)2](-) in a M : L molar ratio of 8 : 6 and stirring for 1 h in THF; thereafter the respective anions (one equiv.) were added in situ. The cluster [Ag10(I)4{S2P(O(i)Pr)2}6], , is also neutral due to the charge balancing of the additional metal and halogen. In this case the M : L : X molar ratio was 10 : 6 : 4. All new clusters were characterized by (1)H and (31)P NMR, and elemental analysis, and , , were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction.
