3.5. Reaction of 1a with bromine. Synthesis of
cis-1,2-dibromo-2-phenyl-1-germatranylethene 6
A solution of bromine (0.10 g, 0.63 mmol) in CCl4
was added to a solution of 1a (0.2 g, 0.63 mmol) in
CHCl3 (10 ml). The reaction mixture was stirred for 4 h
at r.t. and solvents were removed in vacuo. Hexane (5
ml) was added to the residue. A white solid was filtered
off and recrystallized from toluene to give 0.17 g (55%)
of 6, m.p. 191–192°C. IR (nujol): w 1560–1580 cm−1
3.3. Synthesis of 1-(phenylethynyl)germatrane 1b by
reaction of 3 with 4
A solution of Cl3GeCꢀCPh 3 (4.2 g, 15 mmol) in 20
ml of CHCl3 was added dropwise to a solution of
N(CH2CHMeOSnEt3)3 4 (12.89 g, 16 mmol) in 10 ml of
CHCl3. The reaction mixture was stirred for 4 h at r.t.,
then hexane (10 ml) was added and the precipitate was
filtered off, washed with cold hexane (5×10 ml) and
dried in vacuo (2 Torr) for 2 h. Yield: 5.1 g (94%).

3.4.1. Reaction of 1a with NBS (1:2) in DMSO.
Synthesis of
2,2-dibromo-2-germatranyl-1-phenyl-1-ethanone 5
NBS (0.28 g, 1.57 mmol) was added to a solution of
1a (0.25 g, 0.78 mmol) in DMSO (5 ml). The reaction
mixture was stirred for 24 h at r.t. and water (50 ml)
was added. The reaction mixture was extracted with
CHCl3 (20 ml), the extract was washed with water
(3×15 ml) and dried (MgSO4). CHCl3 was removed in
vacuo. The residue was recrystallized from chloroform/
hexane, dried in vacuo to give 0.26 g (68%) of 5 as a
colourless solid, m.p. 155–156°C. IR (nujol): w 1661

r.t. Data were collected in the range 2.53BqB24.98
(−35h517, −115k52, −115l58) using ꢀ–
scan mode. The structure was solved by direct methods
[13] and refined by full-matrix least-squares on F2 [14]
with anisotropic thermal parameters for all non-hydro-
gen atoms. All H atoms were placed in calculated
positions and refined using a riding model. The atrane
skeleton was found to be disordered over two positions
with equal occupancies. Final residuals were R1=

NBS (0.49g, 2.8 mmol) was added to a suspension of
1a (0.45 g, 1.4 mmol) in water (10 ml). The reaction
mixture was stirred for 48 h at r.t., then water was
removed in vacuo. 1H-NMR spectra of the residue
(0.92 g) showed the presence of 5 and Br2CHCOPh
