Abstract
Mixed ligand complexes of gold(I) with various selenones and Me3P, [Me3PAuSe=C C=Se mode of selenones upon complexation is indicative of selenone binding to gold(I) via a selenone group. An upfield shift in 13C-n.m.r. for the >C=Se resonance of selenones and downfield shifts in 31P-n.m.r. for Me3P moiety are consistent with the selenium coordination to gold(I). The steric effect as well as the basicity of Me3PAu+ plays a significant role in bonding with Se-containing ligands compared to the Et3PAu+ and Ph3PAu+ complexes.
