Arylgermanium Hydrides, Ar_nGeH_4‐n(n = 1–3) ‐ Synthesis, Characterization, Reactivity

Characterization of Germanium Nanoparticles from Arylgermanium Trihydrides

“… [14,24,27,28,29,30] The identity of 1 was confirmed using GC/MS and NMR. The trihydride can be conveniently identified by the pronounced Ge−H singlet at 4.22 ppm, similar to other published aryl germanes (4.1–4.5 ppm) [27,31,32] …”

“…The trihydride can be conveniently identified by the pronounced GeÀ H singlet at 4.22 ppm, similar to other published aryl germanes (4.1-4.5 ppm). [27,31,32] The UV-VIS absorption maxima (274 and 267 nm) and the IR band for GeÀ H (2062 cm À 1 ) are also in accordance with the literature values for other arylgermanium trihydrides. [29,30,33] The trihydride was used to produce pure o-tolylgermanium trichloride (2), from which o-tolylgermanium trideuteride (3) was synthesized as reference (Scheme 2).…”
