General description

Triethylgermanium hydride (Ge(C2H5)3H) may be prepared by a three step process:
  • Ge(C2H5)3Br reacted with Na to yield Ge2(C2H5)6
  • Ge2(C2H5)6 treated with Li to form Ge(C2H5)3Li
  • ammonolysis of Ge(C2H5)3Li to give the end product, Ge(C2H5)3H. 1

Application

Reagent undergoes hydrogermylation with alkyl propiolates to give triethylgermylacrylates.
