Germaethene Me2Ge=C(SiMe3)2 (2), generated as a reaction intermediate by thermal elimination of LiX from Me2XGe-CLi(SiMe3)2 or by thermal cycloreversion from the adduct 2*Ph2CO, combines with reactants a-b (e. g.MeO-H) under insertion into the a-b bond (formation of 4), with a=b-c-H (e. g.CH2=CR-CH2-H; R = H, Me, CMe=CH2) under ene reaction (formation of 19 - 21), and with ab 3-nMenSi), O=N=N or CH2=CR-CR=CH2 (R = H, Me)> under , , and cycloaddition (formation of 6, 7 or 9 - 14 or 17, 18).By comparison with the silaethene Me2Si=C(SiMe3)2 (1), 2 is less Lewis acidic and its double bond is less polar.
