    10 pages, 2 figures, 4 tables.Treatment of 1,2-diphosphinobenzene with [Au(C6F5)3(tht)] leads to the diphosphane derivative [{Au(C6F5)3}(1,2-PH2C6H4PH2)] (1), which further reacts with other pentafluorophenylgold(III) reagents in the presence of acetylacetonate as deprotonating agent to afford phosphane-phosphide complexes. The noncyclic PPN[{Au(C6F5)3}2(1,2-PHC6H4PH2)] (2; PPN=bis(triphenylphosphine)iminium) has been shown to be a useful starting material for the synthesis of higher nuclearity cyclic or noncyclic diphosphide or even diphosphodiide derivatives through similar reactions. The crystal structures of the trinuclear anionic NBu4[{Au(C6F5)3}(1,2-PHC6H4PH){Au(C6F5)2Cl}{-Au(C6F5)2}] (3) and the hexanuclear [{Au(C6F5)3}(1,2-PC6H4P){Au(C6F5)3}{-M(dppe)M}2] (M=Au (12), Ag (13)) have been established by X-ray diffraction methods, the last complexes having a bicyclic ring containing three intramolecular interactions between the MI centres.We thank the D.G.I.(MEC)/FEDER (CTQ2004–05495).Peer reviewe
