In this Dalton Transactions Hot Article, Graham Bowmaker from the University of Auckland and colleagues, synthesised three new disilver(I) carbonate/tertiary phosphine complexes.
Solution and mechanochemical methods were used. The use of the mechanochemical synthesis demonstrates an additional aspect of this type of method. The study also demonstrates the value of ATR IR and CPMAS NMR for monitoring the progress of mechanochemical synthesis.
