Abstract
The gold(I) complexes (pip)(2)Au+Cl- and (Cy2NH)AuCl (pip = piperidine , Cy = cyclohexyl) crystallise as loose dimers; in the ionic species N -H ... Cl- hydrogen bonding is the main secondary interaction, whereas in the neutral complex the N-H ... Cl hydrogen bonding is weaker but is compensated by an auriophilic interaction.
