Abstract

Abstract A series of vinylgold (I) complexes [Au (CR= CHR) L](R= H, Me; L= PPh 3, PPh 2 Me, PPhMe 2) were prepared from the reaction of the Grignard reagents [MgBr (CR= CHR)](R= H, Me) with the gold (I) phosphane complexes [AuCl (L)](L= PPh 3, PPh 2 Me, PPhMe 2) at low temperature. The complexes were characterised by various spectroscopic techniques and, in the case of [Au (CMe= CHMe)(PPh 3)], by a single-crystal X-ray ...
