The title compound, [Ag~2~(C~12~H~9~N~3~)~2~](NO~3~)~2~, was prepared under hydrothermal conditions. The structure consists of binuclear complex cations and nitrate anions. The two Ag^I^ atoms, each in a geometry somewhat distorted from linear, are bridged by two 2-(3-pyridyl)benzimidazole ligands _

✦ Synopsis
In the title compound, [Ag~2~(C~9~H~12~N~4~)~2~]Cl~2~·0.5H~2~O, each Ag^I^ atom is coordinated by two C atoms of two heterocyclic carbene ligands, displaying a nearly linear geometry. The Ag—Ag separation is quite long, indicating a very weak metal–metal interaction.
