Trimesitylgermyllithium: synthese et reactivite

The new organogermyllithium Mes3GeLi has been prepared in good yield by hydrogermolysis reaction of t-butyllithium in THF.The bulky group favours stabilization in the form of the THF complex.Mes3GeLi has been characterized by alkylation reaction with MeI.

The First Reversible Thermal Dissociation of Digermanes R3Ge-GeR3 giving Germyl Radicals R3Ge., and of Disilanes R3Si-SiR3 giving Silyl Radicals R3Si..

The Ge-Ge bond in hexamesityldigermane dissociates reversibly between -12 and +53 deg C (ΔHdiss. 87 +/- 8 kJ/mol), and the Si-Si bond in hexamesityldisilane behaves analogously between -60 and -20 deg C; above these temperatures, irreversible reactions of the radicals occur.
