✦ Synopsis

In the title complex, {[Ag(C~16~H~18~N~4~)]NO~3~}~n~, the cationic part forms infinite chains where the Ag^I^ ions are coordinated in a slightly bent fashion by two N-donor atoms of imidazole rings of two distinct ligand molecules. The nitrate anions interact weakly with the silver cations to form infinite strands running in the c-axis direction, approximately perpendicular to the cationic chains. The resulting layers are stabilized by offset π–π interactions between benzene rings. Furthermore, a set of C—H...O and π–π interactions (imidazole rings) between adjacent layers results in the formation of a three-dimensional assembly.

The title compound, {[Ag(C~14~H~14~N~2~)](C~8~H~10~NO~3~S)}~__n__~, adopts a polymeric chain structure, where each Ag^I^ cation binds two N atoms from two different 1,2-bis[(1__H__-imidazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene (IBI) ligands in a linear coordination geometry. Each IBI ligand bridges two neighbouring
