Gold alkali alloys of the formula MAu(5) have not roused the same interest as the gold alkali alloys of the formula MAu. Only 30 years after their discovery by Kienast and Verma, single crystal data for KAu5 and RbAu5 first became available. Until now all further efforts to synthesize NaAu5 and CsAu5 failed; moreover, there have been no theoretical investigations in these systems. Within the framework of density functional theory (DFT) (with the local density approximation (LDA) and norm-conserving, scalar-relativistic pseudopotentials) we focus our interest on the stability of the class of MAu(5) compounds. For that purpose we consider the experimental and hypothetical compounds with theoretical calculations, by determining the equilibrium unit cell volumes and the lattice constants and by investigating the valence charge transfer. We present results concerning the stability of MAu(5) compounds with special emphasis on the unknown phases NaAu5 and CsAu5.
