Not an insoluble sulfide , but the homoleptic gold complex 1 , which is stable without any auxiliary ligands, is formed in the reaction of bis(acetylacetonato)gold( I ) with hydrogen sulfide [Eq. (a)]. Complexes of this type are of interest as intermediates in the catalytic hydrodesulfuration of organosulfur compounds. Counterion: [(Ph 3 P) 2 N] + .
