Abstract
The preparation and structures of a variety of oxonium ion tetrachloroaurate(III) salts isolated from aqua regia are reported. The new compounds are [(H(5)O(2))(2)(12-crown-4)(2)][AuCl(4)](2) (1), [(H(7)O(3))(15-crown-5)][AuCl(4)] (2), [(H(5)O(2))(benzo-15-crown-5)(2)][AuCl(4)] (3), [(H(3)O)(18-crown-6)][AuCl(4)] (4), [(H(5)O(2))(dibenzo-24-crown-8)][AuCl(4)] (5), [(H(5)O(2))(4-nitrobenzo-15-crown-5)(2)][AuCl(4)] (6), [(H(3)O)(4-nitrobenzo-18-crown-6)][AuCl(4)] (7), [(H(11)O(5))(tetrachlorodibenzo-18-crown-6)(2)][AuCl(4)] (8), and [(H(7)O(3))(dinitrodibenzo-30-crown-10)][AuCl(4)] (9). A significant correlation between the degree of proton hydration and crown ether size is observed. Aryl crown ethers are nitrated in concentrated aqua regia, but nonnitrated products may be obtained in a dilute solution of aqua regia by reaction with aqueous HAuCl(4).Entities:
