Abstract

We present two new intermetalloid cluster compounds [(nBu3P)AuGe9(Hyp)2Au(PnBu3)]2 (1) and [Au(iPr2POC6H4OPiPr2)AuGe9(Hyp)2]2 (2) which are obtained from the reaction of KGe9(Hyp)3 (Hyp = Si(SiMe3)3) with the respective Au(I) phosphine precursors. The products are characterized via X-ray crystal structure analysis and the reaction course is analysed via NMR spectroscopy. We also show that in the resulting compound 1 the hypersilyl substituents can be reintroduced via the reaction with Hyp-Cl to obtain nBu3PAuGe9(Hyp)3.
