Abstract

Abstract The electrochemical behavior of the sila-, germa-, and stannacyclopentadienes (metalloles) was studied by cyclic voltammetry. The oxidation and reduction mechanisms of these heterocyclic compounds were investigated. A new method for generation of tetraphenylgermole dianion involving the electrochemical reduction of the corresponding dichlorogermole is proposed. Electrochemical oxidation of the metallole dianions was first ...
