Abstract

The trimethylsilyl-substituted germylzinc halides,(Me3Si) 3GeZnX (X= Cl, Br, and I), and silylzinc chlorides, R (Me3Si) 2SiZnCl (R= SiMe3, Ph), have been prepared and their molecular structures have been full determined by spectroscopic and single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The germylzinc halides and silylzinc chlorides have dimeric structures consisting of two μ-halogen atoms. The reactivity of germylzinc chloride with substrates is ...
