Crystal structures of the gold NHC complex bis(4-bromo-1,3-diethylimidazol-2-ylidene)gold(I) iodide and its 1:1 adduct with trans-bis(4-bromo-1,3-diethyl-imidazol-2-ylidene)diiodidogold(III) iodide

The first title compound, [Au(C7H11BrN2)2]I, crystallizes in the space group P\overline{1} without imposed symmetry. The cations and anions are linked to form chains by Br...I...Br halogen-bond linkages. The second title compound, [Au(C7H11BrN2)2][AuI2(C7H11BrN2)2]I2, is an adduct of the first and i...
