Abstract

A tri(gold)boride of the formula B[AuP(o-Tol)₃]₃ (2) is generated in the reaction of the silylated phosphine borane Cy ₃PBH₂SiMe₃ with the tri(gold)oxonium tetrafluoroborate [(o-Tol)₃PAu]₃O⁺ BF ₄^- and isolated as its stable 1: 1 complex with tricyclohexylphosphine: Cy₃PB[AuP(o-Tol)₃]₃. The composition of the product has been confirmed by elemental analyses and mass spectrometry. Solution NMR data of 2 indicate a molecular structure with C _3v symmetry which has been confirmed by MP2 calculations for the model system H₃PB(AuPH₃)₃. The compound is a rare case of a trimetallated boride which is isolobal with the simple phosphineborane Cy₃PBH₃. With reagents bearing less bulky substituents (R₃ = ⁱPr₃, MePh₂, Ph₃), the reactions proceed to salts with the tetra-aurated cations [Cy₃PB(AuPR₃)₄]⁺.
