4-Butoxynitrobenzene reacts with [Hg(O2CCF3)2] and LiCl to give [Hg(R)Cl] [R = C6H3NO2-3,OnBu-6 (1)] which is symmetrized by Me4NCl to give [HgR2] (2), the crystal structure of which has been determined. The reaction of 2 with Me4N[AuCl4] affords Me4NlAu(R)Cl3] (3) by a facile transmetallation process. Complex 3 reacts with PPh3 (1:1) to give cis-[Au(R)(PPh3)Cl2] (4). The diaryl complex [Au(C6H4N=N-Ph-2)(R)Cl] (5) is obtained by reaction of 3 with [Hg-(C6H4N=NPh-2)2] through a second transmelallation reaction. Complex 5 and PPh3 (1:1) give [AuClPPh3] and the C-C coupling biphenyl RC6iH4N=NPh-2 (6). VCH Verlagsgesellschaft mbH, 1996.
