Description Reactions of two equivalents of [AuCl(SMe(2))] with cyclodiphosphazanes cis-{RP(m-N(t)Bu)}(2) (1a-1d) produce binuclear gold(I) complexes of the type, [ClAu{RP(m-N(t)Bu)}(2)AuCl] (2 R = OC(6)H(4)OMe-o, 3 R = OCH(2)CH(2)OMe, 4 R = NEt(2), 5 R = NH(t)Bu) in quantitative yield. A similar reaction between cis-{(o-MeOC(6)H(4)O)P(mu-N(t)Bu)}(2) (1a) and [AuCl(SMe2)] in a 1 : 1 molar ratio afforded the mono-nuclear complex [ClAu{(o-MeOC(6)H(4)O) P(mu-N(t)Bu)}(2)] (6). Addition of two equivalents of CuX (X = Br, I) to the chloro derivative 2 leads to the formation of bromo, [BrAu{(o-MeOC(6)H(4)O)-P(mu-N(t)Bu)}(2)AuBr] (7), and iodo, [IAu{(o-MeOC(6)H(4)O) P(mu-N(t)Bu)}(2)AuI] (8), derivatives through halogen exchange reactions. A tetranuclear gold(I) macrocycle [Au{(o-MeOC(6)H(4)O)P(mu-N(t)Bu)}(2)](4)-(ClO(4))(4) (9) and a mononuclear gold(I) complex [Au({(o-MeOC(6)H(4)O)P(mu-N(t)Bu)}(2))(2)]ClO(4) (10) were obtained, respectively, from 1 : 1 and 2 : 1 stoichiometric reactions between 1a and [Au(SMe(2))(2)]ClO(4). Molecular structures of complexes 4, 6, 7, 8 and 9 are confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Interestingly, the crystal structure of the tetra-nuclear Au(I) macrocycle 9 reveals the encapsulation of one ClO(4)(-) anion inside the bowl shaped macrocyclic cavity through weak Au center dot center dot center dot O and C-H center dot center dot center dot O interactions.
