Organosilver chemistry

Organosilver chemistry is the study of organometallic compounds containing a carbon to silver chemical bond. The theme is less developed than organocopper chemistry.

The first attempts in organosilver were recorded by Buckton in 1859 and by J. A. Wanklyn & L. Carius in 1861. The synthesis of methyl silver was described by Semerano and Riccoboni Poor thermal stability is reflected in decomposition temperatures of AgMe (-50 °C) versus CuMe (-15 °C) and PhAg (74 °C) vs PhCu (100 °C).
