Abstract

A method of making the inorganic gold compound, such as tetrachloroauric acid, sodium tetrachloroaurate, potassium tetrachloroaurate, sodium tetracyanoaurate, and potassium tetracyanoaurate, includes the step of: treating gold with a halogen-containing oxidizing agent in a hydrochloric acid to obtain the inorganic gold compound, wherein the halogen-containing oxidizing agent excludes chlorine gas. The method of making the inorganic gold compound is simple, safe, time-effective, cost-effective, and environment-friendly, and has the advantage of high yield.
