SCHRICK Date of Degree: MAY, 2014 Title of Study: STRUCTURAL AND PHYSICAL INVESTIGATIONS OF NOVEL GERMANIUM COMPOUNDS: ARYLOXIDES, NANOMATERIALS, AND PHOTOLYSIS OF OLIGOGERMANES Major Field: CHEMISTRY Abstract: The work described in this dissertation will explore the synthesis and characterization of novel germanium containing compounds in order to gain a better understanding of the organometallic chemistry of germanium. These compounds include germanium bisamides, aryloxogermylenes, polyfunctional aryloxides such as calix[n]arenes and binaphthoxogermanium compounds, and oligogermanes containing up to four germanium atoms. We have found that the germanium bisamides can be trapped using the germylene trapping agent benzil and we have fully characterized those products. The germanium bisamides can also be used as starting materials to synthesize germanium aryloxides via protonolysis of a phenol that contains one or more phenolic groups. Using this method we have prepared the t germanium(IV) aryloxides [Ge(OC6H3Ph2-2,6)2(R)(I)] (R = Bu or Me) where the R = Me derivative was then converted to the triaryloxo species [Ge(OC6H3Ph2-2,6)3(Me)] upon reaction of the iodine containing compound with an extra equivalent of 2,6-diphenylphenol.

  • Coordination Compounds of Germanium(IV) Formed with Soft and Hard Donor Atoms : a Look Into the Past and Present Work
    Coordination Compounds of Germanium(IV) Formed with Soft and Hard Donor Atoms : A Look into the Past and Present Work R.V. Singh'*, Pratibha Gupta1, Pratibha Chaudhary' and C.N. Deshmukh2 'Department of Chemistry, University of Rajasthan, Jaipur - 302 004, India E-mail: kudiwal(a>dataii\fosys.net; Fax : +91-141-2708621 Department of Chemistry, Vidyabharti Mahavidyalaya, Amravati - 444 602. ABSTRACT An account of approximately hundred germanium and organogermanium derivatives have been included in this review. The unimolar and bimolar substitution products have been characterized by elemental analyses, conductance measurements, molecular weight determinations and spectral studies, viz., IR, 'H NMR, 13C NMR, U.V. and mass spectra. Thermal stability has been explained on the basis of TGA data. From the analyses of these studies the donor sites of the ligands are located and geometries of the donor environment around the Ge(IV) acceptor centre have been proposed. Based on these studies, trigonal bipyramidal and octahedral geometries have been proposed for the resulting derivatives. The resulting coloured solids are soluble in most of the common organic solvents. These were found to be monomers, as evidenced by their molecular weight determinations. The low values of molar conductance of the resulting metal complexes in anhydrous DMF show them to be non-electrolytes in nature. The spectral data suggested that the ligands act in monofunctional bidentate, bifunctional tridentate and Afunctional tetradentate manners, coordinating through the hard nitrogen and soft sulfur atoms. All such important aspects, including the biological properties about the germanium complexes synthesized in our laboratory as well as other laboratories, are discussed in brief.

  • Studies Towards the Synthesis of a Heterobimetallic Zirconium Germanium Complex from Imidozirconocenes, Germanimines and Germylenes
    Studies towards the Synthesis of a Heterobimetallic Zirconium Germanium Complex from Imidozirconocenes, Germanimines and Germylenes By Peter Chapple A thesis Submitted to Victoria University of Wellington In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Science In Chemistry Victoria University of Wellington 2018 Abstract Early-late transition metal heterobimetallic complexes with direct metal to metal interactions are desirable synthetic targets due to the complementary reactivity of the two different metals present in these compounds. The electron-rich late transition metal (often Rh, Ir, Fe, or Mo), and electron-poor early transition metal create an ideal environment for heterolytic bond cleavage in what is often termed ‘cooperative reactivity’. This project aimed to synthesise a zirconium-germanium heterobimetallic complex based on a known heterobimetallic ligand scaffold; 1. The synthesis of the desired heterobimetallic 1 was attempted using two different synthetic approaches. The first involved the investigating the reactivity between an unsaturated zirconium nitrogen bond (an imidozirconocene) and a germanium(II) source with a lone pair of electrons (known as a germylene). The second approach investigated the reactivity between an unsaturated germanium nitrogen bond (a germanimine) and a zirconium(II) source. In order to have the highest chance of success, a wide range of germanium and zirconium complexes were synthesised. TMS TMS Mes) The novel germylenes include [Ge(NAPH )] (NAPH = [1,8-((CH3)3Si)N)2C10H6]) and [Ge(BIAN ] Mes (BIAN = [((2,4,6-Me(C6H2)N)2)C12H6)]). These proved to be unreactive towards the imidozirconium t species [Cp2Zr(NAr*)(THF)] and [Cp2Zr(NDipp)(THF)] (Ar* = (2,6-(C6H5)2CH)-4-( Bu)C6H2), Dipp = (2,6- ((CH3)2CH)C6H3)) as well as other amidozirconocenes.
