Competition of M−M vs M−X interactions via anion nature in the formation of mixed Au(I)/Ag(I) complexes

Key Points

• Mixed Au(I)/Ag(I) complexes form differently based on anion nature, influencing interactions.
• The presence of specific anions affects the balance between metal-metal and metal-anion interactions.
• Analysis focused on how varying anion types impacted the stability of mixed complexes.
• Understanding these interactions is important for advancements in coordination chemistry and material design.
