J. Vicente et al., Synthesis of the first complex with acetonine as ligand: the first crystalstructure of an acetonine derivative, CHEM COMMUN, (16), 1999, pp. 1541-1542
The complex [Au(acetonine)(2)]ClO4 (3 . ClO4) (acetonine = 2,2,4,4,6-pentam
ethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyrimidine) is obtained by bubbling NH3 through an
acetone solution containing equimolar amounts of NaClO4 and [AuCl(tht)] (th
t = tetrahydrothiophene); the crystal structure of 3 . ClO4 was determined
by X-ray crystallography.
