Abstract

In the crystal structure of the non-solvate form of the title compound, [Au(2)Cl(2)(C(30)H(24)P(2))], two almost linear P-Au(I)-Cl units [175.87 (3) and 171.48 (3)°] are in a skewed arrangement with a Cl-Au⋯Au-Cl torsion angle of -65.29 (3)° so as to form an intra-molecular Au⋯Au inter-action [3.0563 (2) Å]. The complex mol-ecules are connected each other through inter-molecular C-H⋯π inter-actions, giving a sheet structure parallel to the bc plane.
