Arylation of α,ω-bisalkanes 1b - d using p-tolyllithium yields the binuclear tolylgold compounds 2n with n = 2, 3, and 4 (2b - d). p-CH3C6H4AuP(CH3)3 was obtained similarly as an NMR reference compound. 2d is converted into the cation p-CH3C6H42+ BF4- on treatment with HBF4 in diethyl ether, with elimination of toluene.The product is ascribed the cyclic structure 3d, based on NMR and 197Au Moessbauer data.
