The crystal structure of the cytotoxic complex 1,2-dichloro(o-phenanthroline)gold(III) chloride ([AuphenCl2]Cl) has been solved through single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The complex is square planar and exhibits a quite regular geometry. Crystals of the compound belong to the space group P21/n with a = 12.632(5), b = 16.916(3), c = 12.902(6) ?, β = 91.31(3)° and Z = 8. The coordination of the two gold(III) ions in the asymmetric unit is completed by two chloride ions at 2.972(3) and 3.043(3) ?, respectively, forming a distorted square pyramid. The behavior in solution of [AuphenCl2]Cl was further analyzed through 1H NMR spectroscopy. Results point out that the [Au(III)phen]3+ molecular fragment is stable in solution for several hours, even under physiological conditions, whereas the two chloride ligands are released within approximately 30 min after dissolution in the buffer, at 25°C. The gold(III) chromophore is easily and quickly reduced by addition of stoichiometric amounts of sodium ascorbate; metallic gold is formed and free phenanthroline liberates. The implications of these findings for the biological properties of the [Au(III)phen]3+ species are discussed.

A multi degree of freedom ionic polymer-metal composite (IPMC) active catheter with controllable bending ability (from micrometer to millimeter level) under a low voltage (~1.0 V) was developed. And its actuation properties were enhanced effectively through a molecular-regulation strategy.

The reactivity of tetrachloroauric acid (HAuCl4) with readily accessible bidentate N-donor ligands affords N,N-ligated Au(iii) center complexes. These compounds are useful precursors of stable catalysts, anticancer agents, and building blocks for materials. This report provides detailed insight into intermediates, equilibria, the counter anion effect, and structural variability, using spectroscopy, crystallography and computational tools. Novel mixed-valence Au(i) and Au(iii) complexes [Au(o-phen)Cl2]2[AuCl2][AuCl4] and [Au(o-phen)Cl2][AuCl2] having AuCl2- and AuCl4- anions linearly arranged in the axial sites of the square-planar Au(o-phen)Cl2 cation were discovered. Other competing side products of the reaction studied revealed protonated N,N-bidentate ligands with AuCl4- anions. Quantitative variable temperature NMR studies reveal that for a mixture of target Au(iii) salt and the protonated ligand, the reaction favors the irreversible formation of the side product. Using a rapid (30 min) temperature controlled protocol, the desired coordinated species is accessible in respectable yields while avoiding side products.
A novel high-stability Au(III)/Schiff-based catalyst for acetylene hydrochlorination reaction

, p. 61 - 65 (2014)
Herein, we reported on the application of an Au(III)/Schiff-based catalyst in acetylene hydrochlorination reaction. The [AuCl2(phen)]Cl catalyst exhibited excellent stability, and acetylene conversion was maintained at > 90% after 40 h of operation. The excellent stability of the [AuCl 2(phen)]Cl catalyst was attributed to the presence of the 1,10-phenanthroline ligand that partially inhibited the reduction of the Au 3 + active component.
