Gold hydroxide (Cat No.: M047997), commonly referring to auric hydroxide (Au(OH)₃), is an amorphous, yellow-brown solid formed by the reaction of gold(III) salts (like chloroauric acid) with alkali hydroxides. It is a weakly basic compound and thermally unstable, decomposing to gold oxide (Au₂O₃) or elemental gold upon heating. Gold hydroxide is used in analytical chemistry, gold plating, and as a precursor in nanomaterial synthesis. It can also serve as a mild oxidizing agent in organic reactions and materials science applications.
