Advances in the chemistry of base-stabilized germanium(I) compounds towards C-C bond formation by Ong, Melissa Xin Yi

“…First, treatment of the amidinate-stabilized chlorogermylene and the 2-imino-5,6-methylenedioxylphenyl chlorogermylene with potassium graphite (KC8) afforded the amidinato germanium(I) dimer [RGeGeR] and the 2-imino-5,6-methylenedioxylphenyl germanium(I) dimer [LGeGeL] respectively. With the base-stabilized germanium(I) dimers in hand, they were used to investigate C-C bond formation reactions through the polymerization of various α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds to form corresponding polymers with low molecular weight and low dispersity. …”
