Chlorido{N-[2-(diphenylphosphanyl)benzyl]-1-(pyridin-2-yl)methanamine-κP}gold(I)
Abstract
In the title compound, [AuCl(C25H23N2P)], the AuI atom is in a typical almost linear coordination environment defined by phosphane P and Cl atoms [bond angle = 175.48 (4)°]. Helical supramolecular chains along the b axis and mediated by N—H...Cl hydrogen bonds feature in the crystal packing.
