Notes:
The title compound, [Au2Cl2{Fe(C17H14P)2}], (I), contains the expected linear gold centres. The ferrocene moiety acts as a P,P′-bridging ligand, wherein the Fe atom lies on an inversion centre. The P—Au—Cl angle is 177.56 (8)° and bond distances Au—P and Au—Cl are 2.2261 (18) and 2.2781 (18) Å, respectively. The structure is almost identical to that of the metal complex in (I)·2CH2Cl2 [Canales, Gimeno, Jones, Laguna & Sarroca (1997). Inorg. Chem. 36, 5206–5211], but differs considerably from that in 3(I)·2CHCl3 [Hill, Girard, McCabe, Johnson, Stupik, Zhang, Reiff & Eggleston (1989). Inorg. Chem. 28, 3529–3533], in that in the latter, the two independent molecules are linked by a short Au...Au contact.
