The reaction between (tht)AuCl (tht = tetrahydrothiophene) and neat pyrrolidine (L) leads to the compound L 4 Au 3 Cl 3 . An X‐ray structure determination reveals the presence of molecules LAuCl and ions L 2 Au + and Cl − , in the ratio 2:1:1. The packing is characterised by Au.Au contacts and N‐H‐Cl‐hydrogen bonds.
