Abstract

A chiral AuI4CoIII2 hexanuclear complex, [Au4Co2(dppe)2(D-pen)4]X2 (X = Cl−, ClO4−), was prepared from a digold(I) metalloligand, [Au2(dppe)(D-Hpen)2], in combination with CoIII. In the crystal, complex-cations and counter-anions of this complex were found to aggregate separately to form big cationic metallosupramolecular octahedrons and amazing adamantane-like anionic clusters, respectively.
