Synthesis of the molecular amalgam [{AuHg2(o-C6F4)3}{Hg3(o-C6F4)3}]−: a rare example of a heterometallic homoleptic metallacycle
The formation of [Au(PMe3)2][{AuHg2(o-C6F4)3}{Hg3(o-C6F4)3}] by a gold mercury transmetalation mechanism is reported. The complex shows very short Au(i)–Hg(ii) contacts. Theoretical calculations indicate an extremely strong metallophilic interaction.
