In situ Ge–Ge bond formation under ambient conditions: synthesis, characterization and reactivity of organo-functionalized telluridogermanate complexes
Furthermore, in the case of the nucleophilic ring opening of epoxides and aziridines, a judicious tuning of the reaction conditions enabled the synthesis of unreported β‐hydroxy‐ and β‐amino‐ditellurides, which were further employed as precursors of new functionalised unsymmetrical dialkyl tellurides. The thiol−peroxidase catalytic activity of hydroxy‐ditellurides has also been investigated in order to compare

Unprecedented noradamantane-type compounds [(R2,3Ge)4Te5] (R2 = CH2CH2COOH, R3 = CH(CH2COOH)2), containing a GeâGe bond, yield from reactions of R2,3GeCl3 with Na2Te or Li2Te in THF, while reactions with R1GeCl3 (R1 = CMe2CH2COMe) afford a double-decker-type cage [(R3Ge)4Te6]; by reaction with hydrazine, the latter reacts to the hydrazone functionalized, monomeric anion [(R4Ge)Te2]â (R4 = CMe2CH2CNNH2Me).
