Nearly regular tetrahedral geometry in a gold(I)-phosphine complex. X-Ray crystal structure of tetrakis(methyldiphenylphosphine)gold(I) hexafluorophosphate

Abstract

An X-ray crystal structure determination shows the gold(I) complex with four methyldiphenylphosphine ligands to have [4 with combining macron] symmetry with all Au–P bond lengths equal and nearly tetrahedral angles; further, 31P n.m.r. spectroscopy at –80 °C indicates that the nearly tetrahedral species persists in solution.
