Abstract
A germylene monochloride complex ((DPM)GeCl, 1) that is water stable was isolated for the first time. Interestingly, it reacts with cesium fluoride under ambient conditions (non-inert atmosphere and water-containing solvent) to afford water stable germylene monofluoride complex ((DPM)GeF, 2). Due to the usage of DPM (dipyrrinate) ligand, germylene monohalides 1 and 2 show fluorescence in the visible region at 555 and 538 nm, respectively. Compounds 1 and 2 are the first fluorescent germylene complexes and were characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy. The structure of compound 1 was also proved by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies.
