Gold compounds are compounds by the element gold (Au). Although gold is the most noble of the noble metals , [ 1 ] [ 2 ] it still forms many diverse compounds. The oxidation state of gold in its compounds ranges from −1 to +5, but Au(I) and Au(III) dominate its chemistry.
The use of injected gold compound is indicated for rheumatoid arthritis. [4] Its uses have diminished with the advent of newer compounds such as methotrexate and because of numerous side effects. [4] The efficacy of orally administered gold is more limited than injecting the gold compounds. [5]
Nitratoauric acid, hydrogen tetranitratoaurate, or simply called gold(III) nitrate is a crystalline gold compound that forms the trihydrate, HAu(NO 3) 4 ·3H 2 O or more correctly H 5 O 2 Au(NO 3) 4 ·H 2 O. [3] [2] This compound is an intermediate in the process of extracting gold. [4] In older literature it is also known as aurinitric acid. [5]

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 ...
Gold(III) oxide (Au 2 O 3) is an inorganic compound of gold and oxygen with the formula Au 2 O 3.It is a red-brown solid that decomposes at 298 °C. [3]According to X-ray crystallography, Au 2 O 3 features square planar gold centers with both 2- and 3-coordinated oxides.
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.
Due to the explosive tendency of this compound, industrial techniques for extracting and purifying gold compounds are very few. There was a novel biogas extraction of precious metals from scrapped electronics that worked very well, but the creation of fulminating gold and other precious metal amines limits its widespread use.
