In [AuBr(C9H12N3P)], two C[triple bond]N groups of the tris(2-cyanoethyl)phosphine (CEP) ligand are positioned in the vicinity of square-planar coordination sites so as to shield the central AuI atom in at least two directions. Although the disposition of two of the C[triple bond]N groups is indicative of Au...C[triple bond]N interactions, these groups do not participate in the metal coordination. The observed shielding of the metal atom is similar to that reported for one of the polymorphs of the monomeric complex [(CEP)AuCl].
