The high-spin structure of the {sup 105}Ag nucleus has been studied by using the {sup 100}Mo({sup 10}B, 5n){sup 105}Ag reaction to search for chiral doublet bands based on the three-quasiparticle {pi}g{sub 9/2}{nu}(h{sub 11/2}){sup 2} configuration. The level scheme of {sup 105}Ag has been extended. New bands were found and the placement of the yrast {pi}g{sub 9/2}{nu}(h{sub 11/2}){sup 2} band was corrected. No side band to the yrast {pi}g{sub 9/2}{nu}(h{sub 11/2}){sup 2} band could be found in the present experiment. This observation indicates that the {gamma}-soft shape in the {sup 106}Ag changed to a more {gamma}-rigid axially symmetric shape in the yrast {sup 105}Ag configuration. However, a new pair of bands was observed to show the expected properties of a chiral doublet structure.
