The solid-state structures of [Au2(C12H 8S2)(C18H 15p)2], (I), was analyzed. The compound (I) was formed by reaction of ClAuPPh3 and 1,1'-biphenyl-2,2'-dithiol in the presence of trimethylbenzylammonium chloride and K2CO3 in a tetrahydrofuran/methanol solution. The typical p-Au and S-Au bond lengths were observed for gold(I)-phosphine-thiolate complexes. It was observed that the intramolecular Au...Au distance precluded a typical gold-gold bonding interaction, which occured when the distance between two AuI atoms was at or slightly below the sum of the van der Walls radii.
