The new salt bis(4,5-dihydro-1H-benzo[g]indazole)silver(I) hexafluorophosphate, [Ag(N2H10C11)2]PF6, has been synthesized in methanol at ambient temperature and characterized by elemental and thermal analyses, FTIR and 1HNMR spectroscopies, Rietveld refinement from powder diffraction data and DFT studies. The salt crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1 with the parameters: a = 7.776 Å, b = 8.676 Å, c = 9.226 Å, α = 69.27° β = 89.86°, γ = 74.50°, V = 558.02 Å3, Z = 1. In the structure, the silver center is coordinated to two nitrogen atoms from two 4,5-dihydro-1H-benzo[g]indazole ligands, forming a centrosymmetric complex cation, [Ag(N2H10C11)2]+, with a linear coordination geometry around the silver center. The hexafluorophosphate ion, , acts as counter anion. The crystal packing is governed by N-H···F and C-H···F hydrogen bonds that interconnect the ionic constituents and Ag···F and Ag···π interactions help for the stabilization of the packing. The optimized structure was obtained at B3LYP/LanL2DZ level in the gas phase. The stability and reactivity of the structure were studied using respectively HOMO-LUMO gap and electronic global quantities (ionization potential (I) and electron affinity (A)) as descriptors.
