Crystal structure of the unusual coordination polymer catena-poly[[gold(I)-?-1,2-bis(diphenylphosphinothioyl)ethane-?2S:S?] dibromidoaurate(I)]1
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: In the title compound, the gold(I) centres of the cation are coordinated by the P=S groups of the disulfide ligands to form a chain polymer parallel to the c axis. Both independent gold atoms lie on the same twofold axis, and the midpoint of the H2C—CH2 bond lies on an inversion centre. The anions flank the polymeric chain; they are connected to it by short aurophilic interactions and C—H?Br contacts, and to each other by Br?Br contacts.
