Gold acid chloride trihydrate

Description:
Gold acid chloride trihydrate, with the CAS number 16961-25-4, is a coordination compound of gold that typically features gold in a +1 oxidation state, coordinated with chloride ions and water molecules. This compound is characterized by its yellow to orange color, which is typical of many gold complexes. It is soluble in polar solvents, such as water and alcohols, due to the presence of water of hydration. The trihydrate form indicates that three water molecules are associated with each molecule of gold acid chloride, influencing its stability and reactivity. Gold acid chloride trihydrate is often used in various applications, including catalysis, materials science, and as a precursor in the synthesis of other gold compounds. Its reactivity can be attributed to the presence of the chloride ligands, which can be replaced by other ligands in coordination chemistry. As with many gold compounds, it should be handled with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns.
