Environmentally friendly, photochemical access to [N^C^N] AuIII pincer complexes by oxidative addition
Starting from commercially available DMSAuCl and diazonium salts, cationic [ ]AuIII complexes were synthesized in a selective, photosensitizer-free, photochemical reaction by irradiation with blue LED light. This new protocol represents the first easy synthesis of these types of pincer complexes in...

| Summary: | Starting from commercially available DMSAuCl and diazonium salts, cationic [ ]AuIII complexes were synthesized in a selective, photosensitizer-free, photochemical reaction by irradiation with blue LED light. This new protocol represents the first easy synthesis of these types of pincer complexes in moderate to excellent yield starting from a readily available gold(I) precursor with nitrogen as the only by-product. Owing to the disadvantages of known protocols, especially the toxicity in the case of a transmetalation with mercury or the necessity for a mostly twofold excess of a gold precursor, this method offers an attractive alternative towards this kind of gold(III) complexes. In addition, the first arylated [ ]Au(III) pincer complex was synthesized by using this technology. |
