Abstract

(Pentamethyldigermanyl) lithium (Me 3 GeGeMe 2 Li, 1a) and (1, 1-diphenyl-2, 2, 2- trimethyldigermanyl) lithium (Me 3 GeGePh 2 Li, 1b) were prepared and characterized by spectroscopic methods. The structure of (digermanyl) lithium 1b was established by X-ray diffraction. The reaction of 1b with cis-PtCl 2 (PMe 2 Ph) 2 gave the expected substitution product, trans-Pt (Me 3 GePh 2 Ge) 2 (PMe 2 Ph) 2.
