Gold is a very special element; it has been known and cherished since the earliest
civilizations. It has occupied an important place in the history of mankind for over 7000 years …

The review summarises data on transition metal complexes with the so-called non-innocent
ligands. The specific feature of these complexes is that the oxidation state of the central …

A series of annular dinuclear Au (I) complexes containing diphosphine (R2P (CH2) n PR2;
R= Me, n= 1, dmpm; R= Me, n= 2, dmpe; R= Ph, n= 1, dppm; R= Ph, n= 2, dppe) and …

A series of gold (I) and platinum (II) complexes of the type [Au (SR)(P)] and trans-[Pt (SR) 2
(P) 2][SR= 2-thiopyridine (SPy), 2-thiopyrimidine (SPyrim); P= 1, 3, 5-triaza-7 …

This article reviews structural aspects of over 500 homoleptic dithiolene complexes
characterized by X‐ray diffraction. Topics such as structural geometries, ligand types, and …

The square planar, light-green, diamagnetic complex [N (n-Bu) 4][AuIII (L t-Bu) 2](1) reacts
with iodine in acetone affording the neutral paramagnetic species [Au (L t-Bu) 2](1a)(S= 1/2) …

Gold was discovered as shining yellow nuggets and is undoubtedly the first metal known to
early civilizations. The symbol derives from the Latin word aurum, which is related to the …

Gold (I) complexes were readily prepared by reaction of the respective ligands with (Me2S)
AuCl in CH2Cl2. Complexes of formula LAuCl {L= diphenyl (2‐pyridyl) phosphane …

In this report, we describe our recent work on the development of a new family of chiral
heteroleptic digold (I) metalloligands with mixed diphosphine and d‐penicillaminate (d …

Substitution of the chlorine ligand in the complex [Au2Cl2 (μ-dppf)] by other halogens or
anionic ligands such as Spy-(2-pyridinethiolate) or S2CNR2-have been carried out. The …
