Abstract
Very recently it was shown that the metalloid cluster compound {Ge(9)[Si(SiMe(3))(3)](3)}(-) can be used for subsequent reactions as the shielding of the cluster core is rather incomplete. Here further reactions of with M(+) sources of group 11 metals are described, leading to metalloid cluster compounds of the formula {MGe(18)[Si(SiMe(3))(3)](6)}(-) (M = Ag, Cu). These reactions can be seen as first steps into a supramolecular chemistry with metalloid cluster compounds. Beside this feature, the structural properties as well as the bonding situations in these cluster compounds are discussed.
