Abstract

A cube with twelve Au atoms on the sides and eight S atoms at the corners constitutes the structure of the novel thioaurate(I) ion [Au12S8]4⊖. It is obtained quantitatively as the yellow [Ph4As] salt on addition of Ph4AsCl to an aqueous solution of Au2S and Na2S. Very few examples of thioaurates(I) are known.
