Abstract
The reaction of diaryldibromodigermene Tbb(Be)Ge = Ge(Br)Tbb (Tbb = 4-But-2,6-[CH(SiMe3)2]2C6H2) with N,N'-diisopropyl-carbodiimide afforded the corresponding amidinato-supported bromogermylene via the insertion of the C=N moiety into the Ge–C(Tbb) sss-bond. The formation mechanism of the amidinato-supported bromogermylene was revealed by DFT calculations. This type of insertion reaction toward a metal–carbon bond can be interpreted in analogy to the reactivity of transition-metal complexes.
