Their synthesis in pure form is challenging. In order to clarify the chemical nature of known compounds and find routes to new derivatives, a systematic study is presented for the synthesis of [Ag(py)n]XO4 (X= Mn, Cl, Re, n=2-4) complexes. Ten complexes including four new derivatives, namely [Ag(py)4]MnO4, [Ag(py)4]MnO4·4[Ag(py)2]MnO4, [Ag(py)2]ClO4·0.5py, and [Ag(py)2]ReO4 are synthesized and characterized.
