Synthesis and Characterization of Neutral, Homo and Heteronuclear Clusters with Unsubstituted Germanium or Tin Atoms

The first, well‐characterized, polyhedral cluster with two different heavier group 14 elements is prepared (see picture). Low‐valent group 14 halides are used to synthesize species in which the majority of the group 14 atoms carry no organic substituents.
