Gold compounds, medical applications

The chemistry of gold is complex. Gold can exist in seven oxidation states -1,0, - -1, -1-2, +3, +4, and - -5. Apart fromAu in the colloidal and elemental forms, only Au+ and Au+ are known to form compounds that are stable in aqueous media and important in medical applications. The remaining oxidation states of -1, +2, +4, and +5 are not presently known to play a role in biochemical processes related to therapeutic uses of gold. Neither Au+ or Au+ forms a stable aquated ion ([Au(OH2)+ ] or [Au(OH2)4 ], respectively)... [Pg.325]
