Description

Stable and crystalline Au(OTeF5)3 is prepared from AuF3 and B(OTeF5)3. The crystal structure analysis of the monoclinic single crystals, space group C2/c, a = 1893.8(4), b = 847.3(2), c'= 564.6(2) pm, β = 94.30(5), gave the OTeF5 positions, but the gold positions only in a statistical manner. Interpretation of weak diffuse super structure reflections resulted in a three times magnified c-axis and produced molecular units of the X2AuX2AuX2 type. This is the first time that bridging OTeF5 ligands have been observed. (author)
