Yep, someone already answered that you can create the file in write mode
and then close it, but I wanted to add a little more in why your
solution doesn't work.
You're not interpolating the filename INTO the os.system string
The following would work
for i in routers:
os.system('/bin/touch %s'%1)
Granted, you should also provide a filename with a full path for simplicity.
