Abstract. Pseudopotential ab initio calculations were performed for species of the type BH n (AuPH3) m k , where n+m=3 or 4, and the charge k is −2,…,+1. Some derivatives of these and diaurated diboranes were also studied. The structural data agree well with the available experimental evidence. Factors affecting the stability of these systems, including the role of aurophilic attraction, are discussed. The singly charged anions and the diaurated diboranes are predicted to be the most stable members of these series.
