Abstract: In the centrosymmetric dicationic cyclic title compound [Au₂(C₂₅H₂₂P₂)₂](NO₃)₂·2CD₃OD, an aurophilic interaction with a distance of 3.0245 (3) Å is found between the linear-dicoordinated Au^I centres. The perdeuteromethanol solvent molecules are linked to the nitrate anions via hydrogen bonds.
