The reaction of tetra- tert -butylcyclotetraphosphane cyclo -(P t Bu) 4 (L) with one to four equivalents of [AuCl(tht)] (tht = tetrahydrothiophene) leads to the formation of gold(I) complexes [(AuCl) n L] ( n = 1-4, 1-4) in which the ligand coordinates up to four gold(I) chloride fragments. Complexes 1-4 show dynamic behaviour with redistribution of {AuCl} moieties which was investigated by 31 P{ 1 H} NMR spectroscopy, DFT calculations and single crystal as well as powder X-ray diffraction.
