X-ray crystallographic data of 1 revealed that pydc exhibits two different coordinaton modes that play a key role in the construction of the 3-D crystal network including Ag-carboxylate clusters in which close Ag-Ag distances exist. The magnitudes of close Ag-Ag interactions in second-order energy (E-2) have been revealed by natural bond orbital analysis performed with single point energy calculation using the experimental geometry of 1. Furthermore, the luminescent properties of 1 show strong fluorescence with two emission maxima in the visible region. Also, 1 has antifungal activity on Candida albicans (MIC value, 4gmL(-1)) and good antibacterial activity on micro-organisms (MIC value, 64-256gmL(-1)).eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessSilver(I) complexPyridine-35-dicarboxylateCoordination polymerPhotoluminescent propertiesAntimicrobial propertiesArticle68115516810.1080/00958972.2014.9783072-s2.0-84941733247Q3WOS:000346266500012Q3
