Going solo: The use of AlH3·NMe3 as a hydrogen-transfer agent with β-diketiminatogermanium(II) and β-diketiminatotin(II) halides gives the divalent hydrides [{HC(CMeNAr) 2}GeH] and [{HC(CMeNAr)2}SnH] (Ar = 2,6-iPr 2C6H3). In the solid state, the compounds exhibit monomeric and dimeric arrangements, respectively, with weak intermolecular Sn-H...Sn contacts for the Sn analogue (see picture). (Chemical Equation Presented)
