Abstract: The title compound, [Ag(CN)(PTA) 3 ]·4H 2 O, is a water-soluble discrete silver(I) complex where the silver center is coordinated by three phosphorus atoms from distinct 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA, C 6 H 12 N 3 P) ligands and one carbon atom from a cyanide ion, forming a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The asymmetric unit consisting of a [AgCN(PTA) 3/2 )] unit and two water molecules. The Ag—P bond distances range from 2.4696 (4) to 2.4728 (6) Å, and the Ag—C bond distance is 2.168 (2) Å, while the bond angles around the silver center vary between 107.402 (13) and 111.07 (3)°, confirming its distorted tetrahedral coordination environment. Intermolecular O—H...N and O—H...O hydrogen bonds in the crystal packing of the title compound generate a two-dimensional supramolecular architecture with a corrugated sheet-like topology that extends along the crystallographic bc plane.
