The triphenylgermanium dithiocarbamates Ph3GeS2Cr (I-VIII) have been synthe
sized by the reaction of Ph3GeCl with RCs2Na in CH2Cl2 solvent. Their IR, H
-1-NMR, UV spectra, and in vitvo antitumour activity are discussed. It is s
hown that these dithiocarbamates are bidentate ligands in the mentioned ger
manium complexes (I-VIII).
