• Associated context:

   Nakazawa et al. have synthesized complexes with silver, copper and gold ions by using triphenylsilanes bearing organo-phosphane groups in ortho-positon (A1, Scheme 1). Based  on a similar system, Bourissou and Amgoune have generated a cationic trigonal pyramidal gold complex with Lewis-basic properties of gold; it forms Au···Si interactions (A2).
