. Can. J. Chem. 53,3542 (1975). The molecular structure of tetramethylgermane has been determined by vapor phase electron diffraction. The structural parameters, based on r, interatomic distances are r(GeC) = 1 .945 i 0.003 A, r(CH) = 1.12 _+ 0.02 A, and L(GeCH) = 108 i 2". Tetrahedral symmetry of the GeC4 skeleton was preserved in the analysis by including a shrinkage correction for the C...C interatomic distance. The quoted uncertainties were estimated to include both systematic and random errors.J. LAWRENCE HENCHER et FRANCIS S. MUSTOE. Can. J. Chem. 53,3542 (1975).
