Abstract

The structure of the silver(I) triflate complex with N,N′,N″,N‴-tetrakis-(3′,5′-difluorobenzyl)-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane is reported. The Ag+π interaction between the Ag+ ion incorporated in the cyclam moiety and the aromatic side-arm was observed in solid and solution by X-ray crystallography and UV–VIS titration experiments, respectively. It is also revealed that the Ag+ complex is stable in gas phase from the FAB-MS. The energy of the Ag+π interaction was estimated as about 30 kJ/mol by Hartree–Fock/3-21G(*) and DFT (B3LYP/3-21G(*)) calculations. The NBO analysis indicated that s donation is the main contribution to the Ag+–aromatic ring interaction.
