Abstract

A stepwise reaction between [Ge<sub>9</sub>Hyp<sub>3</sub>]<sup>-</sup> and CuI/K(C<sub>5</sub>Me<sub>5</sub>) yielded the {Ge<sub>9</sub>Hyp<sub>3</sub>} hybridized double-decker sandwich cluster [{Cu(C<sub>5</sub>Me<sub>5</sub>)}<sub>2</sub>(η<sup>3</sup>:η<sup>3</sup>-Ge<sub>9</sub>Hyp<sub>3</sub>)]<sup>-</sup> (2) <i>via</i> [Cu(C<sub>5</sub>Me<sub>5</sub>)(η<sup>3</sup>-Ge<sub>9</sub>Hyp<sub>3</sub>)]<sup>-</sup> (1) as an intermediate. The controllable coordination of {Cu(C<sub>5</sub>Me<sub>5</sub>)} on the tri-silylated Ge<sub>9</sub> cluster in this work contributes to the rational design and synthesis, and eventually the application of silylated Ge<sub>9</sub> based catalysts.
