Three procedures of reversible dissolution/deposition of gold using halogen-containing organic systems

Abstract

Gold is reversibly and repeatedly dissolved and deposited under restricted conditions in a solution consisting of an elemental halogen, a halide and acetonitrile by a procedure involving one of three physical operations: addition of methanol, cooling, or evaporation to dryness.
