Abstract

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Ag(NO3)(C14H12N2O2)], the AgI centre is three‐coordinated by two N atoms from 2,9‐dimethoxy‐1,10‐phenanthroline and one O atom of the nitrate anion. The Ag—N bond lengths are almost identical, and O—Ag—N bond angles are larger than the bite angle N—Ag—N. In the main ligand, the O and C atoms of the methoxy groups lie almost in the plane defined by the phenanthroline ring system. Based on the extended delocalized π system of phenanthroline and the d10 electronic configuration of the metal centre, the title complex is expected to produce strong luminescent emission when properly excited.
