It is well known that [Au(PR 3 ) 3 ] + compounds (R any organic ligand) adopt a trigonal planar AuP 3 arrangement, small distortions being only due to steric repulsion between the ligands R. This is supported by relativistic MP2 geometry optimizations for the free gas phase species which yield the i

✦ Synopsis
AuF 3 , Au(SbF 6 ) 2 , or [Au(SbF 6 ) 2 ´Au(AuF 4 ) 2 ] react with AsF 3 in HF/SbF 5 under formation of F 3 As±Au + SbF 6 ± . This is stable to about 0 °C. The crystal structure reveals strong cationic-anionic interactions through one fluorine atom so that a description as F 3 As±Au±F. . . SbF 5 is also possible (a = 798.3(1), b = 912.0(2), c = 1076.3(2) pm, b = 96.25°, space group P2 1 /n). A similar reaction with CO affords [Au(CO) 2 + ] 2 SbF 6 ± ´Sb 2 F 11 ± (a = 1404.8(1), b = 622.86(3), c = 1130.2(1) pm, space group Pmma). The cations in these compounds have the expected linear geometry. Reaction with PF 3 affords Au(PF 3 ) 2 + SbF 6 ± (a = 825.5(2), b = 824.4(2), c = 876.4(3) pm, c = 119.99°, space group P2 1 /n).

The data rather indicate that the stabilization of Fe'" centers by "hard" N and "soft" S donors is essentially due to n donation from the amide and thiolate functions and rule out "noninnocence" of t
