Abstract
The reaction of [Au(CCPh]∞ with dppm [bis(diphenylphosphino)methane] in ethanol gave [Au3(μ2-dppm)2(CCPh)2][Au(CCPh)2]. The complex has been characterized by X-ray crystal analysis. The structure consists of a trinuclear. [Au3(μ2-dppm)2 (CCPh)2]+ cation with the three gold atoms arranged in an isosceles triangle. The intramolecular AuċAu separations are 3.083(2) and 3.167(2) Å. At room temperature, the [Au3(μ2-dppm)2(CCPh)2][Au(CCPh)2] complex is photoluminescent in the solid state and in solution. © 1994.
