Gold phosphide is a hypothetical binary inorganic compound of gold metal and phosphorus with the chemical formula AuP.[1][2] No compound of composition AuP has been probed by X-ray crystallography. The only known gold phosphide is the metastable Au2P3.[3]
Preparation
Gold phosphide was claimed to be prepared by the direct reaction of spongy gold and phosphorus or by passing phosphine into a solution of auric chloride in ether or alcohol:[4][5][6]
- AuCl3 + PH3 → AuP + 3HCl
Properties
AuP is claimed to decompose in air or with H2O.[7]
