Abstract
In the title compound, -2(C6H12{P(C6H5)(2)}(2))(2)]-[SbF6](2).1.6CH(3) CN, the [{Ph(2)P-(CH2)(6)-PPh(2)}Au-2(2)](2+) cation lies with its Au atoms on a twofold axis and the [SbF6](-) anions in general positions. Main bond lengths and angles include Au-P 2.307(2) and 2.311(2) Angst rom, P-Au-P 172.7(1) and 174.2(1)degrees. There are no significant int ramolecular or intermolecular Au...Au interactions. The C-atom chain o f the hexamethylene moiety is maximally extended with C-C-C-C torsion angles in the range -170.4 (7) to -177.7(7)degrees and all the Au-P-C- C and P-C-C-C conformations are gauche.
