Popis: The title compound, an (N^C)-cyclo­metalated gold(III) diazide, namely, di­azido­[5-eth­oxy­carbonyl-2-(5-eth­oxy­carbonyl­pyridin-2-yl)phenyl-κ2 C 1,N]gold(III), [Au(C17H16NO4)(N3)2] or Au(ppyEt)(N3)2, was synthesized by reacting Au(ppyEt)Cl2 with NaN3 in water for 24 h. The complex features a gold center with a square-planar environment.
The title compound, an (N^C)-cyclo­metalated gold(III) diazide, namely, di­azido­[5-eth­oxy­carbonyl-2-(5-eth­oxy­carbonyl­pyridin-2-yl)phenyl-κ2 C 1,N]gold(III), [Au(C17H16NO4)(N3)2] or Au(ppyEt)(N3)2, was synthesized by reacting Au(ppyEt)Cl2 with NaN3 in water for 24 h. The complex has been structurally characterized and features a gold center with a square-planar environment. The Au—N(azide) bond lengths are significantly different depending on the influence of the atom trans to the azide group [Au—N(trans to C) of 2.067 (2) Å versus Au—N(trans to N) of 2.042 (2) Å]. The azide groups are twisted in-and-out of plane by 56.2 (2)°.
