Ch. Lai et al., Theoretical study of triple bonds to germanium: relative stabilities of germanitriles and germaimines, CHEM COMMUN, (12), 2001, pp. 1120-1121
Both B3LYP and CCSD(T) computational results suggest that fluorine substitu
tion can dramatically stabilize FGe dropN, with respect to Ge=NF, both from
a kinetic and from a thermodynamic viewpoint.
