Chloro(tetrahydrothiophene)gold(I) an coordination complex of gold. Like the dimethyl sulfide analog, this compound is used as a convenient entry point to gold chemistry. The tetrahydrothiophene ligand is labile and is readily substituted with other stronger ligands.

Preparation

This compound is not commonly available commercially. It may be prepared by the reaction of tetrachloroauric acid with tetrahydrothiophene:[1]

HAuCl4 + SC4H8 + H2O → AuCl(SC4H8) + OSC4H8 + 3 HCl
