Tris- and tetrakis(imidazolium) salts react with Ag2O to give cylindrical polynuclear silver(I) complexes such as the tetrasilver derivative [Ag4(1)2](PF6)4. The silver(I) complexes undergo transmetalation with [AuCl(SMe2)] to yield homonuclear gold(I) complexes with retention of the metallosupramolecular assembly.
