X-Ray crystal structure of sodium bis(N-methylhydantoinato)gold(I) tetrahydrate; a linear, planar complex of pharmacological interest stabilised by two nitrogen ligands
Abstract
The complex formed, in alkaline aqueous solutions, between N-methylhydantoin and AuIII has been shown by X-ray crystallography to be a linear, planar AuI complex, the first AuI complex stabilised by two nitrogen ligands.
