Description

We report the synthesis and isolation of stable complexes of the formally neutral iron germanide motifs, Fe3Ge and Fe2Ge, which are coordinated by N-heterocyclic carbene and carbon monoxide ligands. In NHCiPr2Me2•Ge[Fe(CO)4][Fe2(CO)8] a germanium(0) ligand with just one stabilizing NHC is coordinated to both a mononuclear [Fe(CO)4] as well as a dinuclear [(CO)4FeFe(CO)4] unit. Treatment of NHCiPr2Me2•Ge[Fe(CO)4][Fe2(CO)8] with the smaller NHCMe4 leads to (NHCMe4)2Ge[Fe(CO)4]2, which contains a germylone ligand bridging two [Fe(CO)4] units.
