Abstract: The electronic structure and electronic absorption spectra of binuclear Au(Ⅰ) complexes with bidentate phophines and a bidentate ylid ligand have been studied using quasirelativistic pseudopotential ab initio calculations at the HF and MP2 levels by the LANL2DZ basis sets. The electronic properties of the spectral transition and Au(Ⅰ)—Au(Ⅰ) interaction were also discussed.

Key words: Gold binuclear complexes, Electronic structure, Electronic absorption spectra, LANL2DZ basis sets, Au(Ⅰ)—Au(Ⅰ) interaction
