In: this review we show the synthetic utility of acetylacetonatogold comple
xes as reagents for preparing gold(III) complexes with C, N and O donor lig
ands and gold(I) complexes with phosphorus ylide, methanide, methanediide,
sulfur ylide, amino, amido, nitrido alkyl, phosphido, thiolato, hydrosulfid
o, trithiocarbonato, dithiocarbamato, 1,1 dithiolato and alkynyl (including
ethynyl) ligands. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
