Further studies into the reactivity and coordination chemistry of [Ge-9](4-) Zintl ions. The indium-containing anions [In(Ge-9)(2)](5-), [(Ge-9)(2)In(C6H5)](4-) and [Ge-9{In(C6H5)(3)}(2)](4-)
Reactions between ethylenediamine solutions of K4Ge9 and triphenylindium yielded three novel Zintl ions, [In(Ge9) 2]5- (1), [(Ge9)2In(C 6H5)]4- (2), and [Ge9{In(C 6H5)3}2}]4- (3). Species 1 exhibits an indium metal atom coordinated by two nine-atom germanium cages which bond to the central metal in...
