Abstract
The first stable alkylidenetelluragermirane 4 was synthesized by the r eaction of an overcrowded diarylgermylene Tbt(Mes)Ge: 2b (Tbt = 2,4,6- tris[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]phenyl; Mes = mesityl) with 9-(dichloro methylene)fluorene, 3, followed by addition of tributylphosphine tellu ride. X-ray crystallographic analysis of 4 shows that the geometry of its telluragermirane ring can be explained in, terms of a pi-complex: binding model of a tellurium atom to a germanium-carbon double bond.
