Coordination Assemblies of Acetylenic Dithioether Ligands on Silver(I) Salts: Crystal Structure, Antibacterial and Cytotoxicity Activities

Coordination polymers (CPs) and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) constitute a new class of antibacterial materials. Interest in them stems from their wide range of topology, dimensionality, and secondary building units that can be tuned by an appropriate choice of metal ions and ligands. In particular, silver-based species feature good antibacterial properties. In this study, we explored the coordination of three acetylenic dithioether RSCH
