Bis(bromogold(I)) bis(diphenylphosphino)methane

It is used mainly as a precursor and building block in organometallic and coordination chemistry. The complex provides a defined dinuclear gold(I) framework for preparing further gold(I) compounds, for studying aurophilic Au···Au interactions and luminescent gold species, and within homogeneous gold catalysis research.

Its CAS number is 72476-68-7 and its empirical formula is C25H22Au2Br2P2 (Hill notation), corresponding to a molecular weight of 938.13 g/mol. The MDL number is MFCD20527204. It is also known as dppm(AuBr)2.

We supply this compound as a research/reagent-grade material suitable for synthesis and laboratory use, presented as a crystalline solid (melting point 275-278 °C). We do not represent it as USP, BP or EP pharmacopoeia grade. Current assay and batch specifications are confirmed on the Certificate of Analysis accompanying each lot.

Handle it as a research chemical using standard laboratory precautions: wear suitable gloves, eye protection and a lab coat, avoid dust formation, and work in a well-ventilated area or fume hood. It carries Water Hazard Class WGK 3 (Germany), meaning it is severely hazardous to water, so prevent any release to drains, soil or watercourses. Always consult the current Safety Data Sheet before use.

It is supplied in securely sealed containers appropriate to the order quantity, with full identification and documentation. As an established exporter, Tech Serve Solutions arranges compliant labelling, Safety Data Sheets and export paperwork for international shipment. Storage and transport conditions follow the guidance stated on the SDS.
