The aurophilicity of sulfur and the bridging of gold( I ) centers by bis(diphenylphosphanyl)‐ n ‐propylamine (PNP) ligands result in the self‐assembly of the highly soluble high‐nuclearity propeller‐shaped complex [Au 10 ( μ ‐PNP) 4 ( μ 3 ‐S) 4 ](PF 6 ) 2 (see picture), which exhibits long‐lived luminescence in the microsecond range.
