N2 - Readily functionalizable bipyrimidine compounds were prepared for the first time, and their coordination chemistry with silver salts was explored. Solution 1H NMR spectroscopy experiments indicated that the ligands rapidly form complexes with silver(I) salts, and coordination at a first site inhibits coordination of a second cation to the ligand, thus favoring 1:1 complexes in solution. These 1:1 units self-assemble into one-dimensional chains in the solid state, even in the presence of excess Ag(I). Structurally diverse coordination polymers exhibiting different coordination numbers and geometry were characterized by single crystal X-ray crystallography. Our results demonstrate that a modification to the ligand, distal from the binding site, affects the coordination chemistry and supramolecular structure of these complexes.
