When we apply this method to 2 with two AG(I)-N(imino) bond lengths of 2.247 Å it yields a BVS of 0.70 unit, which is outside the stipulated error limit of 0.20 unit. This means that the silver(I)-N(imino) bond lengths of 2.247 Å it yields a BVS of 0.70 unit, which is outside the stipulated error limit of 0.20 unit. This means that the silver(I) atom in 2 is not a two-coordinate system - additional coordinating atoms are needed to satisfy its valence. When the other two Ag-N bonds (with the pyridyl N atoms) are included in the coordination sphere of silver in 2, the BVS increases to 1.02. Thus, we conclude that the silver atom in 2 is essentially four-coordinate.
