Bis(chlorogold(I)) [1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]

It is a dinuclear gold(I) phosphine complex used mainly as a catalyst precursor in homogeneous gold catalysis and as a defined gold(I) building block in organometallic synthesis. The dppf-bridged digold structure is typically activated with a halide-abstracting salt to generate cationic gold species for reactions such as cycloisomerisations and nucleophilic additions to alkynes and allenes.

Its CAS number is 122092-51-7 and its empirical formula is C34H28Au2Cl2FeP2 (Hill notation), corresponding to a molecular weight of 1019.22 g/mol. It is also named [μ-Ferrocene-1,1′-diylbis(diphenylphosphine-κP)]bis[chlorogold(I)] and has a melting point of 223–229 °C.

Tech Serve Solutions supplies this complex as a research-grade reagent with a typical assay of 95%. It is offered as a technical/research-grade organometallic material for synthesis and catalysis and is not represented as USP, BP or EP pharmacopoeial grade. A Certificate of Analysis confirming the batch assay is provided with each order.

As an organometallic gold(I) complex, this material should be handled by trained personnel using standard laboratory precautions: wear gloves, eye protection and suitable clothing, avoid generating or breathing dust, and work in a well-ventilated area or fume hood. It is classified WGK 3 (highly hazardous to water), so it must be kept out of drains and watercourses. A full Safety Data Sheet is supplied and should be consulted before use, as detailed GHS classification may be batch- or supplier-specific.

It is supplied in tightly sealed laboratory containers appropriate to the order quantity, labelled in line with GHS requirements and accompanied by a Safety Data Sheet and Certificate of Analysis. As a global exporter, Tech Serve Solutions arranges compliant international documentation and shipping; precise packaging and transport classification are confirmed at the time of order.
