  • Abstract
    The title ketenyl­idene, [Au3(C2O)(C26H35O2P)3](C2F6NO4S2), was obtained upon exposure of [2-(di­cyclo­hexyl­phosphino)-2′,6′-dimeth­oxy-1,1′-biphen­yl]gold(I) bis­(tri­fluoro­methane­sulfon­yl)imide to acetic anhydride at elevated temperature. The ketenyl­idene bridge caps the tri-gold cluster. The title compound has provided crystals that upon analysis represent the first tri-gold ketenyl­idene with atomic distances indicative of bonding inter­action between the gold atoms.
