The luminescent properties of gold(I)–sulfur compounds have received much attention for their potential applications in the sensing field. The molecular level regulation of luminescence remains a challenge. It is critical to unravel the relationship between the luminescence and the structure. Herein we report a binuclear complex [Au2(dppaptc)2]Cl2(1, dppaptc =N,N-bis(diphenylphosphanylmethyl)-amino-4-phenyl-thiocarbamide), which exhibits variations at Au–S bond lengths as a function of temperature or solvent. X-ray analysis reveals a linear decrease from 2.900(3) to 2.745(15) Å upon cooling1·2CHCl3from 300 to 80 K combined with a linear correlation with its luminescence intensity at 475 nm, which was confirmed by TD-DFT calculations. Compound1, if solvated with H2O and alcohol, possesses the shorter Au–S bonds and enhanced luminescence. The close relationship between luminescence intensity and Au–S length serves as a complement to existing luminescent gold(I)–sulfur systems and provides some insight into understanding the thermochromism and solvatochromism of the gold(I)–sulfur compounds.
