Two-, three- and four-coordinate silver(I) complexes, AgX (X = CN − , PF6-, and SbF6-), with triphenyl phosphine, tricyclohexyl phosphine, diphenylcyclohexyl phosphine, and dicyclohexylphenyl phosphine have been synthesised and characterised by single crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, and 13 C and 31 P NMR spectroscopy. From the reaction of a metal salt to phosphine ligand ratio of 1:1 the various compounds crystallize as 1:2, 1:3, and 1:4 compounds [Ag(PPh 2 Cy) 3 (CN)]·5H 2 O (1), [Ag(PCy 3 ) 2 ]·PF 6 (2), [Ag(PPh 3 ) 4 )]·SbF 6 ·CHCl 3 (3), [Ag(PCy 3 ) 2 ]·SbF 6 (4), [Ag(PPh 2 Cy) 2 (C 3 H 6 O)]·SbF 6 (5), and [Ag(PPhCy 2 ) 2 ]·SbF 6 .CHCl 3 (6) monomers, with a wide variety of geometries around the central silver(I) atom. Compounds 1 and 3 have slightly distorted tetrahedral geometry around the silver(I) atom. The compounds 2, 4, and 6 show linear geometry around the metal centre, while compound 5 has a distorted trigonal planar geometry. The elemental analysis and NMR spectroscopic results are consistent with the single crystal structural analyses.
