Transition-metal Carbonyl Derivatives of the Germanes. Part 17. Tetracarbonylgermyl(trimethylgermyl)iron, , its Conversion into 2>, and hence to (characterised by X-Ray Crystallography) via

The synthesis and spectroscopic characterisation of the mixed germane derivative (3) are described.This compound eliminates GeMe3H to give quantitatively 2> (4), which has a Fe2Ge2 four-membered ring.The GeH2 units of (4) react with , eliminating H2 and CO, to give (7).Quantitative loss of CO from (7) gives (8) which has been shown by an X-ray crystal structure determination to contain linked Co2Ge and Fe2Ge triangles.
