Abstract

The binary complex salt [Co(N2C2H8)3][AuCl4]2Cl has been synthesized. Its crystal structure has been determined. Crystal data for C6H24N6Cl9AuCo: a = 20.8976(14) Å, b = 14.4773(9) Å, c = 7.9944(5) Å; β = 110.809(2)°; V = 2260.9(3) Å3, space group c2/c, Z = 4, d calc = 2.798 g/cm3. The plane square environment of the gold atom of the complex anion is completed to a tetragonal pyramid by the chlorine atom of the neighboring complex anion (Au…Cl 3.538 Å). The structure is layered. Layers of complex cations and complex anions alternate along the X axis.
