Selective Au-C bond cleavage and arene-C-H activation in (C^N^C)Au(iii) pincer complexes are reversible, leading to a solvent-dependent proton shuttling process. The ether-free cleavage products are non-fluxional and show weak gold(iii)-arene interactions commensurate with intermediates postulated for CMD-type arene activation.

Abstract
Selective Au-C bond cleavage and arene-C-H activation in (C^N^C)Au(iii) pincer complexes are reversible, leading to a solvent-dependent proton shuttling process. The ether-free cleavage products are non-fluxional and show weak gold(iii)-arene interactions commensurate with intermediates postulated for CMD-type arene activation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
