Fig. 5

Calculated values of ΔrG°(S) for the formation of the silver ion solvates (Ag+ + nS → [Ag(S)n]+) and ion-pairs (Ag+ + [pf] (+ S) → {Ag[pf]}ip / {(S)Ag[pf]}ip) at the DLPNO-CCSD(T)/CBS level with COSMO-RS solvation in S. The individual values are reported in full detail in Supplementary Note 4.3. The species with the largest negative value of ΔrG°(S) in the graph, is the most favorable one in solution in S at standard conditions. AN stands for H3CCN, DCE for 1,2-Cl2C2H4 and DCM for CH2Cl2.
