Abstract
The reaction of tetrakis (tri-t-butylsilyl)cyclotrigermene with trityl tetraphenylborate in benzene produced tris (tri-t-butylsilyl)cyclotri germenium tetraphenylborate [(t-Bu3SiGe)(3)(+) BPh4-], which can be is olated as yellow solids stable in the absence of air. The crystal stru cture of the cyclotrigermenium ion reveals a free germyl cation with 2 pi-electron system.
