Abstract
The dinuclear gold(I) amidinate complex [Au(2)(Me(2)-form)(2)], 1, (Me(2)-form = 2,6-Me(2)-formamidinate) reacts with Hg(CN)(2) to form a 2D structure, 1.2Hg(CN)(2).2THF. Each gold center interacts with two Hg(CN)(2) molecules. The Au...Au distance increases from 2.7 Angstroms in the starting dinuclear complex to 2.9 Angstroms in the adduct. The gold centers are connected to four nitrogen atoms with Au-N distances in the range 2.13-2.51 Angstroms. The cyanide stretch is shifted from 2192 cm(-1) in the Hg(CN)(2) to 2147 cm(-1) in the adduct.
