Abstract
We report the synthesis, structure, luminescence and reactivity of a 27-membered gold(I) metallatriangle containing three separate dinuclear gold(I) units self-assembled from a chiral tetradentate dianionic dithiophosphate ligand. The hexanuclear complex luminesces in the solid-state (λmax = 488 nm) at 298 K. Additionally, the Au(I) complex forms an unexpected dinuclear Au(III) oxidative addition product upon reaction with Br2.
