Sometimes these species are referred to as "gold salts". "Chrysotherapy" and "aurotherapy" are the applications of gold compounds to medicine. [1] Research on the medicinal effects of gold began in 1935, [2] primarily to reduce inflammation and to slow disease progression in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The use of gold compounds has ...
Sodium aurothiomalate (INN, known in the United States as gold sodium thiomalate) is a gold compound that is used for its immunosuppressive anti-rheumatic effects. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Along with an orally-administered gold salt, auranofin , it is one of only two gold compounds currently employed in modern medicine.
The gold atom centers in Au(III) complexes, like other d 8 compounds, are typically square planar, with chemical bonds that have both covalent and ionic character. Gold(I,III) chloride is also known, an example of a mixed-valence complex. Gold does not react with oxygen at any temperature [4] and, up to 100 °C, is resistant to attack from ...

Gold(III) hydroxide, gold trihydroxide, or gold hydroxide is an inorganic compound, a hydroxide of gold, with formula Au(OH) 3. It is also called auric acid with formula H 3 AuO 3. It is easily dehydrated above 140 °C to gold(III) oxide. Salts of auric acid are termed aurates.
Sodium aurothiosulfate, or sanocrysin, is the inorganic compound with the formula Na 3 [Au(S 2 O 3) 2]·2H 2 O. It is the trisodium salt of the coordination complex of gold(I), [Au(S 2 O 3) 2] 3−. The dihydrate, which is colorless, crystallizes with two waters of crystallization. The compound has some medicinal properties as well as potential ...
Organogold chemistry is the study of compounds containing gold–carbon bonds. They are studied in academic research, but have not received widespread use otherwise. The dominant oxidation states for organogold compounds are I with coordination number 2 and a linear molecular geometry and III with CN = 4 and a square planar molecular geometry.
Gold(II) sulfate is the chemical compound with the formula AuSO 4 or more correctly Au 2 (SO 4) 2. This compound was previously thought to be a mixed-valent compound as Au I Au III (SO 4) 2. But later, it was shown that it contained the diatomic cation, Au 4+ 2 which made it the first simple inorganic gold(II
