I attemted to prepare a new ligand and six mercaptopyrimide gold(I) complexes. The synthesis of the new ligand succeeded, however, all of the complexes ended up containing more of the free ligand and precursor than the desired complex.
I recorded the NMR and HRMS spectra of the individual stages of the synthesis of the new ligand and of the complexes, as well as the UV-Vis and IR spectrum of the ligand stages.
