The single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis shows that the structures of <b>1 </b>and <b>2 </b>are similar to each other, with the twonintramolecular Ag(I) centers of each complex being encircled by two <b>L</b><sup>1</sup> ligands; this forms a unique boxlike cyclicndimer, which is further linked to form one-dimensional (1D) chains of <b>1</b> and a two-dimensional (2D) network of <b>2</b>nby intermolecular face-to-face π···π stacking and/or weak C−H···O hydrogen-bonding interactions, respectively.n<b>3 </b>has a mononuclear structure, which is further assembled into a 2D network via intermolecular Ag···O and π···πnstacking weak interactions. <b>4</b> possesses two different 1D motifs that are further interlinked through interlayer face-to-face π···π stacking and Ag···O weak interactions, resulting in a 2D network. It is worth noting that one of theninteresting structural features of <b>1</b>, <b>2</b>, and <b>4</b> is the presence of obvious C−H···M hydrogen-bonding interactionsnbetween the Ag centers and some acridine ring H atoms identified by X-ray diffraction on the basis of the van dernWaals radii. Furthermore, as a representative example, full geometry optimization on the basis of the experimentalnstructure, the natural bond orbital (NBO), and topological analysis of <b>1</b> were carried out by DFT and AIM (Atomsnin Molecules) calculations. The total C−H···Ag interaction energy in <b>1</b> is estimated to be about 14 kJ/mol. Therefore,nthis work offers three new rare examples (<b>1</b>,<b> 2</b>, and<b> 4</b>) that exhibit C−H···Ag weak interactions, in which the Nndonors of the acridine rings coordinate to Ag(I) ions.
