Abstract
Oxidative addition of the S-Se bond to Au(I) complexes is discussed for a series of 26 auranofin (AF) derivatives. AF and its analogues are Au(I) complexes with recognized anticancer activity that act by binding and inhibiting the thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) enzyme. Generally, the oxidative addition to Au(I) is a sluggish reaction under mild conditions (i.e., a high activation barrier - ΔH‡), which is also verified here for AF, ΔH‡ = 33.0 kcal mol-1. However, we predicted that subtle changes in the AF ligands can make the process feasible under standard conditions. For instance, the exchange of -PEt3 by -P(Et2)(OEt), which is a weaker electron σ-donor, reduced the activation barrier to 17.1 kcal mol-1. Furthermore, substitution of the -SAtg ligand by -Cl- leads to a ΔH‡ value of 22.5 kcal mol-1. Overall, the reaction is driven by the nucleophilic attack of the S-Se bond on the Au(I) center, attributed mainly to the charge transfer (4p)Se → (6p)Au, which characterizes the addition step. At the transition state (TS) point, the (5d)Au → σ*(S-Se) charge transfer becomes relevant, facilitating the S-Se bond breakage and the oxidation step. In addition to the electron transfers, the strain energy to deform the linear Au(I) geometry to the tetracoordinated Au(III) arrangement in the TS structure plays a primary role in explaining the trends in the activation barriers. Finally, the activation barrier (ΔH‡) and reaction energy (ΔH°) were correlated for most of the complexes studied, which suggests that the reaction passes through a late or product-like TS and, therefore, the steric and electronic factors affecting ΔH‡ also act on ΔH°. Overall, the results presented here might open up a new field of investigation for interactions between AF derivatives and TrxR, which contributes to a full understanding of the biological mechanism of action of these species.

Abstract
The modulation of numerous signaling pathways is orchestrated by redox regulation of cellular environments. Maintaining dynamic redox homeostasis is of utmost importance for human health, given the common occurrence of altered redox status in various pathological conditions. The cardinal component of the thioredoxin system, mammalian thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) plays a vital role in supporting various physiological functions; however, its malfunction, disrupting redox balance, is intimately associated with the pathogenesis of multiple diseases. Accordingly, the dynamic monitoring of TrxR of live organisms represents a powerful direction to facilitate the comprehensive understanding and exploration of the profound significance of redox biology in cellular processes. A number of classic assays have been developed for the determination of TrxR activity in biological samples, yet their application is constrained when exploring the real-time dynamics of TrxR activity in live organisms. Fluorescent probes offer several advantages for in situ imaging and the quantification of biological targets, such as non-destructiveness, real-time analysis, and high spatiotemporal resolution. These benefits facilitate the transition from a poise to a flux understanding of cellular targets, further advancing scientific studies in related fields. This review aims to introduce the progress in the development and application of TrxR fluorescent probes in the past years, and it mainly focuses on analyzing their reaction mechanisms, construction strategies, and potential drawbacks. Finally, this study discusses the critical challenges and issues encountered during the development of selective TrxR probes and proposes future directions for their advancement. We anticipate the comprehensive analysis of the present TrxR probes will offer some glitters of enlightenment, and we also expect that this review may shed light on the design and development of novel TrxR probes.

Abstract
Heteroleptic and homoleptic binuclear Au(I) complexes [Au2(μ-PAnP)(SPh)(X)] (X = Cl- or Br-), [Au2(μ-PAnP)(SPh)2] and [Au2(μ-PAnP)(SPhCO2H)2] (SPh = benzenethiolate and SPhCO2H = 4-thiolatobenzoic acid) containing the bridging diphosphine, 9,10-bis(diphenylphosphino)anthracene (PAnP), were synthesized and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. [Au2(μ-PAnP)(SPh)2] exists as a monomer in its crystals but [Au2(μ-PAnP)(SPhCO2H)2] polymerizes into zig-zag chains via intermolecular hydrogen bonding. [Au2(μ-PAnP)(SPh)(Cl)] forms cyclophane-like dimers of Ci symmetry in crystals via intermolecular aurophilic interactions (Au-Au distance = 3.3081(5) Å). Recrystallization of [Au2(μ-PAnP)(SPh)(Br)] invariably led to crystals composed of [Au2(μ-PAnP)(SPh)(Br)] and [Au2(μ-PAnP)(Br)2]. Despite the chemically different P atoms in the heteroleptic [Au2(μ-PAnP)(SPh)(Cl)] and [Au2(μ-PAnP)(SPh)(Br)], solutions of the complexes show only a single signal in their 31P{1H} NMR spectra at room temperature which resolved into two singlets of equal intensity at 183 K. Identical signals which show the same thermal behavior were observed in solutions of [Au2(μ-PAnP)(SPh)2] and [Au2(μ-PAnP)(X)2] in 1 : 1 molar ratios, indicating that there are three exchanging species, [Au2(μ-PAnP)(SPh)(X)], [Au2(μ-PAnP)(SPh)2] and [Au2(μ-PAnP)(X)2], in solution. A solution of [Au2(μ-PAnP)(Cl)2] and [Au2(μ-PAnP)(Br)2] in 1 : 1 molar ratio shows two singlets, implying that the exchange is not due to the dissociation of either PAnP or halide ligands, but rather it involves the exchange of the thiolate and the halide ligands (SPh- ↔ X-). A mixture of [(PPh3)Au(SPh)] and [(PPh3)Au(Cl)] (1 : 1 molar ratio) showed only one signal in its room temperature 31P{1H} NMR spectrum, indicating that the ligand exchange can happen intermolecularly. Self-exchange of SPh- ligands is possible as the room temperature 31P NMR spectrum of a mixture of [Au2(μ-PAnP)(SPh)2] and [Au2(μ-PAnP)(SPhCO2H)2] displayed only one signal. The rate constants of the exchange were determined by fitting the line shapes of the 31P NMR signals at different temperatures. The activation energies (Eas), obtained from Arrhenius plots, for the SPh- ↔ Cl- and SPh- ↔ Br- exchange are 36.9 ± 0.7 and 33.7 ± 1.0 kJ mol-1, respectively. The activation enthalpy and activation entropy, obtained from Eyring plots, for the SPh- ↔ Cl- and SPh- ↔ Br- exchange are 35.0 ± 0.7 kJ mol-1 and -25.7 ± 3.2 J K-1, and 32.0 ± 1.0 kJ mol-1 and -21.8 ± 4.7 J K-1, respectively. Based on the kinetic results, two possible mechanisms were proposed for the reactions.

Abstract
Chelating P^P and hemilabile P^N ligands were found to trigger the oxidation of Au(i) complexes by o-benzoquinones. The ensuing Au(iii) catecholate complexes have been characterized by NMR spectroscopy, single crystal X-ray diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. They adopt tetracoordinate square-planar structures. Reactivity studies substantiate the reversibility of the transformation. In particular, the addition of competing ligands such as chloride and alkenes gives back Au(i) complexes with concomitant release of the o-quinone. DFT calculations provide insight about the structure and relative stability of the Au(i) o-quinone and Au(iii) catecholate forms, and shed light on the 2-electron transfer from gold to the o-quinone. Chelating P^P and hemilabile P^N ligands were found to trigger the oxidation of Au(i) complexes by o-benzoquinones.![]()

Abstract
Since the beginning of the 2000's, homogeneous gold catalysis has emerged as a powerful tool to promote the cyclization of unsaturated substrates with excellent regioselectivity allowing the synthesis of elaborated organic scaffolds. An important goal to achieve in gold catalysis is the possibility to induce enantioselective transformations by the assistance of chiral complexes. Unfortunately, the linear geometry of coordination for gold usually encountered in complexes at the +1 oxidation states renders this goal very challenging. In consequence, the interest toward the synthesis of chiral gold(III) complexes is steadily growing. Indeed, the square planar geometry of the gold(III) cation appears more suitable to promote chiral induction. Beside catalysis, gold(III) complexes have also shown promising potential in the field of pharmacology. Herein, syntheses and applications of well-defined gold(III) complexes reported over the last fifteen years are summarized.

Abstract
Transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions are central to many organic synthesis methodologies. Traditionally, Pd, Ni, Cu, and Fe catalysts are used to promote these reactions. Recently, many studies have showed that both homogeneous and heterogeneous Au catalysts can be used for activating selective cross-coupling reactions. Here, an overview of the past studies, current trends, and future directions in the field of gold-catalyzed coupling reactions is presented. Design strategies to accomplish selective homocoupling and cross-coupling reactions under both homogeneous and heterogeneous conditions, computational and experimental mechanistic studies, and their applications in diverse fields are critically reviewed. Specific topics covered are: oxidant-assisted and oxidant-free reactions; strain-assisted reactions; dual Au and photoredox catalysis; bimetallic synergistic reactions; mechanisms of reductive elimination processes; enzyme-mimicking Au chemistry; cluster and surface reactions; and plasmonic catalysis. In the relevant sections, theoretical and computational studies of AuI /AuIII chemistry are discussed and the predictions from the calculations are compared with the experimental observations to derive useful design strategies.

Abstract
Two neutral bis(pentafluorophenyl)thiolate gold(III) complexes with the unsymmetrical S^N ligands 2-aminothiophenol or cysteamine have been synthesized and their reactivity has been studied. Homo- and heterodinuclear compounds were obtained by their coordination to gold(I) or silver(I) derivatives through the sulfur atom. Interestingly, a tetranuclear derivative bearing short gold(I)···gold(I) and the more unusual gold(I)···gold(III) interactions has been prepared. These amino-thiolate derivatives can be used as precursors for the synthesis of novel gold(III) acyclic diaminocarbene complexes by reaction with isocyanides CNR. The nucleophilic attack of the amino group to isocyanide molecules affords the synthesis of unprecedented bidentate C^S acyclic diaminocarbene ligands. All of the complexes are air- and moisture-stable at room temperature and have been spectroscopically and structurally characterized.

Abstract
An efficient method for chemoselective cysteine arylation of unprotected peptides and proteins using Au(III) organometallic complexes is reported. The bioconjugation reactions proceed rapidly (<5 min) at ambient temperature in various buffers and within a wide pH range (0.5-14). This approach provides access to a diverse array of S-aryl bioconjugates including fluorescent dye, complex drug molecule, affinity label, poly(ethylene glycol) tags, and a stapled peptide. A library of Au(III) arylation reagents can be prepared as air-stable, crystalline solids in one step from commercial reagents. The selective and efficient arylation procedures presented in this work broaden the synthetic scope of cysteine bioconjugation and serve as promising routes for the modification of complex biomolecules.

Abstract
A new family of cyclometallated gold(III) thiolato complexes based on pyrazine‐centred pincer ligands has been prepared, (C^Npz^C)AuSR, where C^Npz^C=2,6‐bis(4‐ButC6H4)pyrazine dianion and R=Ph (1), C6H4tBu‐4 (2), 2‐pyridyl (3), 1‐naphthyl (1‐Np, 4), 2‐Np (5), quinolinyl (Quin, 6), 4‐methylcoumarinyl (Coum, 7) and 1‐adamantyl (8). The complexes were isolated as yellow to red solids in high yields using mild synthetic conditions. The single‐crystal X‐ray structures revealed that the colour of the deep‐red solids is associated with the formation of a particular type of short (3.2–3.3 Å) intermolecular pyrazine⋅⋅⋅pyrazine π‐interactions. In some cases, yellow and red crystal polymorphs were formed; only the latter were emissive at room temperature. Combined NMR and UV/Vis techniques showed that the supramolecular π‐stacking interactions persist in solution and give rise to intense deep‐red photoluminescence. Monomeric molecules show vibronically structured green emissions at low temperature, assigned to ligand‐based 3IL(C^N^C) triplet emissions. By contrast, the unstructured red emissions correlate mainly with a 3LLCT(SR→{(C^Npz^C)2}) charge transfer transition from the thiolate ligand to the π⋅⋅⋅π dimerized pyrazine. Unusually, the π‐interactions can be influenced by sample treatment in solution, such that the emissions can switch reversibly from red to green. To our knowledge this is the first report of aggregation‐enhanced emission in gold(III) chemistry.

Abstract
The mechanism of gold(i)-thiolate, disulfide exchange was investigated by using initial-rate kinetic studies, 2D ((1)H-(1)H) ROESY NMR spectroscopy, and electrochemical/chemical techniques. The rate law for exchange is overall second order, first order in gold(i)-thiolate and disulfide. 2D NMR experiments show evidence of association between gold(i)-thiolate and disulfide. Electrochemical/chemical investigations do not show evidence of free thiolate and are consistent with a mechanism involving formation of a [Au-S, S-S], four-centered metallacycle intermediate during gold(i)-thiolate, disulfide exchange.

Abstract
The cationic pseudo-square-planar complex tetrakis(1-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazole-2-thione-κS)gold(III) trichloride sesquihydrate, [Au(C4H6N2S)4]Cl3·1.5H2O, was isolated as dark-red crystals from the reaction of chloroauric acid trihydrate (HAuCl4·3H2O) with four equivalents of methimazole in methanol. The AuIIIatoms reside at the corners of the unit cell on an inversion center and are bound by the S atoms of four methimazole ligands in a planar arrangement, with S—Au—S bond angles of approximately 90°.

Abstract
The oxidative addition of Csp(2)-Br or Csp(2)-I bonds to gold(I) does not take place even under very favorable intramolecular conditions that could form five- or six-membered gold(III) metallacycles. DFT calculations reveal that although this process could be feasible thermodynamically, it is kinetically very sluggish.

Abstract
Taking advantage of phosphine chelation, direct evidence for oxidative addition of Csp(2)-X bonds (X = I, Br) to a single gold atom is reported. NMR studies and DFT calculations provide insight into this unprecedented transformation, which gives straightforward access to stable (P,C) cyclometalated gold(III) complexes.

Abstract
Pathways for the formation of gold thiolate complexes from gold(III) chloride precursors AuCl(4)(-) and AuCl(3) are examined. This work demonstrates that two distinct reaction pathways are possible; which pathway is accessible in a given reaction may depend on factors such as the residue group R on the incoming thiol. Density functional theory calculations using the BP86 functional and a polarized triple-ζ basis set show that the pathway resulting in gold(III) reduction is favored for R = methyl. A two-to-one ratio of thiol or thiolate to gold can reduce Au(III) to Au(I), and a three-to-one ratio can lead to polymeric Au(SR) species, which was first suggested by Schaaff et al. J. Phys. Chem. B, 1997, 101, 7885 and later confirmed by Goulet and Lennox J. Am. Chem. Soc., 2010, 132, 9582. Most transition states in the pathways examined here have reasonable barrier heights around 0.3 eV; we find two barrier heights that differ substantially from this which suggest the potential for kinetic control in the first step of thiolate-protected gold nanoparticle growth.

Abstract
This Concept article provides an elementary discussion of a special class of large-sized gold compounds, so-called Au nanoclusters, which lies in between traditional organogold compounds (e.g., few-atom complexes, <1 nm) and face-centered cubic (fcc) crystalline Au nanoparticles (typically >2 nm). The discussion is focused on the relationship between them, including the evolution from the Au⋅⋅⋅Au aurophilic interaction in Au(I) complexes to the direct Au-Au bond in clusters, and the structural transformation from the fcc structure in nanocrystals to non-fcc structures in nanoclusters. Thiolate-protected Au(n)(SR)(m) nanoclusters are used as a paradigm system. Research on such nanoclusters has achieved considerable advances in recent years and is expected to flourish in the near future, which will bring about exciting progress in both fundamental scientific research and technological applications of nanoclusters of gold and other metals.

Abstract
Ion mobility mass spectrometry (IM-MS) can separate ions based on their size, shape, and charge as well as mass-to-charge ratios. Here, we report experimental IM-MS and IM-MS/MS data of the Au(25)(SCH(2)CH(2)Ph)(18)(-) nanocluster. The IM-MS of Au(25)(SCH(2)CH(2)Ph)(18)(-) exhibits a narrow, symmetric drift time distribution that indicates the presence of only one structure. The IM-MS/MS readily distinguishes between the fragmentation of the outer protecting layer, made from six [-SR-Au-SR-Au-SR-] "staples' where R = CH(2)CH(2)Ph, and the Au(13) core. The fragmentation of the staples is characterized by the predominant loss of Au(4)(SR)(4) from the cluster and the formation of eight distinct bands. The consecutive eight bands contain an increasing variety of Au(l)S(m)R(n)(-) product ions due to the incremental fragmentation of the outer layer of Au(21)X(14)(-), where X = S or SCH(2)CH(2)Ph. The mobility of species in each individual band shows that the lower mass species exhibit greater collision cross sections, facilitating the identification of the Au(l)S(m)R(n)(-) products. Below the bands, in the region 1200-2800 m/z, product ions relating to the fragmentation of the Au(13) core can be observed. In the low mass 50-1200 m/z region, fragment ions such as Au(SR)(2)(-), Au(2)(SR)(3)(-), Au(3)(SR)(4)(-), and Au(4)(SR)(5)(-) are also observed, corresponding to the large fragments Au(25-x)(SR)(18-(x+1)). The study shows that most of the dominant large fragments are of the general type Au(21)X(14)(-/+), and Au(17)X(10)(-/+) with electron counts of 8 and 6 in negative and positive mode, respectively. This suggests that geometric factors may outweigh electronic factors in the selection of Au(25)(SR)(18) structure.
