Solvent role, driving forces and mechanisms A1 Fernández Moyano, Sara A1 Peñas de Frutos, Marconi Nicolás A1 Bartolomé Albistegui, María del Camino A1 Espinet Rubio, Pablo K1 Termodinámica K1 Thermodynamic K1 2210 Química Física AB Aryl rearrangements triggered by Cl− extraction from trans-[AuIII(Rf)2Cl2]− (Rf = C6F3Cl2-3,5), led quickly to a mixture of [Au(Rf)3(solv)], cis-[Au(Rf)2Cl(solv)] and [Au(Rf)Cl2(solv)] (solv = OEt2, OH2). 19F NMR and X-ray diffraction studies led us to identify the species present in solution and the role of the solvent in their formation, while DFT calculations confirm the thermodynamic basis of their evolution. Very different Rf–Rf coupling rates are found from (μ-Cl)2[cis-Au(Rf)2]2 or cis-[Au(Rf)2ClL] species (L = OEt2, NCMe, Cl−) depending on the coordination strength of the ligand or solvent in the fourth position.
