Abstract
Bis(ferrocenyl)germylene Fc*2 Ge: [2; Fc*=2,5-bis(3,5-di-tert-butylphenyl)-1-ferrocenyl] was isolated in the form of red crystals from the reaction of the sterically demanding ferrocenyl lithium dimer (Fc*Li)2 and GeI2 . Bis(ferrocenyl)germylene 2 exhibits extraordinary thermal stability in hydrocarbon solution and the solid state, as well as stable redox behavior. Moreover, it undergoes a ligand-redistribution reaction with GeCl2 ⋅(dioxane) to afford the corresponding chlorogermylene, which was isolated upon coordination with PBu3 .
