Formation and Structures of Germanium(II) Aryloxo/Oxo Clusters

The reaction of Ge[N(SiMe3)2]2 with a phenol lacking a substituent in one ortho position results in the formation of polynuclear clusters having terminal aryloxide ligands and bridging O atoms. Structures of this type have not been observed for germanium(II) aryloxides before, and the source of the...

Description
Summary:The reaction of Ge[N(SiMe3)2]2 with a phenol lacking a substituent in one ortho position results in the formation of polynuclear clusters having terminal aryloxide ligands and bridging O atoms. Structures of this type have not been observed for germanium(II) aryloxides before, and the source of the bridging O atoms in these clusters was determined to be the phenol reactant.
