Abstract

The crystal structure of Au(C₆H₁₂S₃)Cl has been determined by X-ray diffraction methods. Each gold atom adopts an approximately linear geometry, with a bond to one of the sulphur atoms of the [9]-S₃ ligand, which adopts a strained [225] conformation (AuS = 2.270(3) Å). An infinite, almost linear, gold chain is formed along a crystallographic glide plain with AuAu = 3.3095(4) Å, and AuÂuAu = 176.34(1)°, indicative of fairly weak metal-metal bonding.
