1-Picolyl-3-propylbenzimidazolium bromide （LBr） was prepared from benzimida- zole by alkylation with 2-chloromethyl-pyridine in the presence of NaH, followed by quaternization with 1-bromopropane. Ligand LBr was treated with AgBr in CH2Cl2 to afford a dinuclear silver（I） complex L2Ag2Br4 （1）. In complex 1, a 2-D supramolecular layer is formed through two types of π-π stacking interactions. Fluorescent emission spectra of ligand LBr and complex 1 are described.
The bis-benzimidazolium salt bis[2-（N-ethylbenzimidazoliumyl）ethyl]amine hexafluorophosphate（LH2·（PF6）2） and its N-heterocyclic carbene silver（Ⅰ） complex[L2Ag3]（PF6）3（1）have been prepared and characterized.In complex 1,a trinuclear silver（Ⅰ） architecture is formed by two tridentate ligands and three silver（I） atoms,in which one 12- and two 7-membered rings are contained.In the crystal packing of 1,1D chain and 2D supramolecular layer are formed via intermolecular weak interactions,including π…π interactions and C-H…π contacts.Additionally,the fluorescence emission spectra of LH2-（PF6）2 and 1 are described.
