Abstract

Reaction of tetrachlorogermane with 2-thienylchlorosilane and methyl(2-thienyl)dichlorosilane in presence of AlCl3 is studied. It was shown that in the reaction with 2-thienyltrichlorosilane 2-thienyltrichlorogermane mainly formed, while in the reactions with methyl(2-thienyl)dichlorosiulane aromatic germaniumcontaining compounds like 2-thienyltrichlorogermane and di(2-thienyl)dichlorogermane were obtained. Quantum-chemical calculations showed that the reaction of chlorine atoms exchange in GeCl4 with aromatic moiety formed from arylchlorosilanes in the presence of AlCl3 proceeds through a four-membered activated complex.
