Abstract

The first stable anionic iron(0) complexes bearing an ate-type pentacoordinated germanium(IV) ligand were synthesized. The X-ray crystallographic analysis shows trigonal-bipyramidal and piano-stool geometries of germanium and iron, respectively. The complexes have moderately electron-rich iron centers and polar Ge-Fe bonds which can be cleaved by oxidation.
