Uses & manufacturing
General Manufacturing InformationGold chloride (AuCl): INACTIVE
Applications
UsesGold (I) Chloride is used chiefly in photography as a print toning agent, as a starting solution to form other gold compounds, as a precursor to the preparation of Ultra Pure Gold Metal, in gilding ceramic ware and glass, and in the manufacture of purple of Cassius.
UsesGold(I) chloride is used as a starting material for the preparation of Phosphine ligated gold(I) complexes, which is used as catalysts in synthetic chemistry. It is also used to prepare metallic gold and potassium auric bromide and potassium chloride.
General DescriptionThe structure of gold chloride is monoclinic. It sublimes at elevated temperatures.
Preparation methods
PreparationGold(I) chloride is prepared by thermal decomposition of gold trichloride: AuCl3 AuCl + Cl2.
