A PGeP pincer-type germylene, Ge(NCHPBu)CH, which contains two phosphane groups hanging from the N atoms of an N-heterocyclic germylene fragment, has been isolated for the first time. This compound has already furnished a rich transition metal derivative chemistry (Co, Rh, and Pd) that includes complexes containing bridging P,Ge,P-, chelating P,Ge- and pincer P,Ge,P-ligands.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
