The reaction (1:1) between and gives the complex , which on treatment with AgClO4 gives .From this complex, the species , or are obtained by reaction with the corresponding KX salts or neutral ligands.The crystal structure of (obtained by metathesis between the corresponding perchlorate and tetramethylammonium salts) has been determined; the cation displays square plana coordination with two cis-nitrogen (Au-N: 2.166(15), 2.140(14) Angstroem) and two cis-carbon (Au-C: 2.021(16), 2.033(17) Angstroem) atoms bonded to the gold atom.
