Abstract
Two new Au(I) dimethylpyrrimidinethiolate complexes have been synthesized. The dimer [Au(4,6-Me(2)pym-2-S)](2) possesses a solid state structure in wh ich pi-stacking dominates over intermolecular Au ... Au bonding. In solutio n, the dimer gives evidence of facile dissociation while exhibiting concent ration dependent luminescence.
