Gold complexes of ditelluridoimidodiphosphinate ligands — Reversible oxidation of Au(I) to Au(III) via insertion of gold into a phosphorus–tellurium bond
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The reaction of (THT)AuCl with (TMEDA)Na[N(TePR 2 ) 2 ] (R = Ph, i-Pr, t-Bu) produces a series of gold (III) complexes of the type [{R 2 PNP(Te)R 2 }Au(µ-Te)] 2 (4a, R = i-Pr; 4b, R = Ph; 4c, R = t-Bu) rather than the expected homoleptic Au(I) complexes of the ditelluridoimidodiphosphinate ligands. A combination of solution- and solid-state NMR studies shows that both cis and trans isomers of 4a–4c are formed in these reactions. X-ray structural determinations of the trans isomers of 4a–4c reveal a centrosymmetric arrangement with a central four-membered Au 2 Te 2 ring formed by the formal insertion of gold into a P–Te bond; this insertion process was shown to be reversible upon addition of PPh 3 to 4a to give the monomeric gold(I) complex Ph 3 PAu[N{TeP(i-Pr) 2 } 2 ]. The X-ray structure of cis-4b is also described.Key words: gold, tellurium, redox, X-ray structures, imidodiphosphinate.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
