Synthesis and exploration of a 1 <i>H</i> -germol-1-ide/pyridine bidentate ligand
The synthesis of an anionic [Ge,N]-bidentate ligand based on the combination of an amidopyridinato group with an anionic germolide ring is reported. The potential of the germolide part of this ligand to switch between η<sup>1</sup>-(<i>via</i> Ge) and η<sup>5</sup>-(<i>via</i> C<sub>4</sub>Ge) coordination modes makes this ligand an interesting synthetic target. Salt metathesis reactions of the potassium salt of this ligand with GeCl<sub>2</sub> dioxane and SnCl<sub>2</sub> allow the synthesis of bis-germolyl-substituted germylenes and stannylenes with the tetrel atoms in a distorted square pyramidal coordination environment.
