Abstract
AbstractTris(triphenylphosphine)gold(I)‐pentafluorosilicate(IV) ([Au{P(C6H5)3}3][SiF5]) was prepared and the structure was determined by single crystal x‐ray diffraction. The complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 (No. 2). The lattice constants are a = 14.634(2) Å, b = 17.180(2) Å, c = 22.212(3) Å, α = 86.48(1)°, β = 78.95(1)°, γ = 83.99(1)°. Number of molecules per cell: Z = 4. The gold atoms are coordinated to three triphenylphosphine ligands to form the trigonal planar cation [Au{P(C6H5)3}3]+. Separated from the cation is the [SiF5]− anion which is regular trigonal bipyramidal coordinated. No interactions between the fluorine atoms and the gold atoms were observed.
