of iodomethylzinc iodide with trimethylchlorogermane gave in low yield both Me3GeCH2I and Me3GeCH2GeMe3. These compounds were obtained in much better yield when ICH2ZnI was allowed to react with germanium tetrachloride and the reaction product was methylated with MeMgBr. The reaction of iodomethyl-tin compounds with silver chloride and bromine in acetonitrile served well in the preparation of Me3SnCH2Cl
Me 3 SnCH 2 I,Me 3 SnCH 2 Br,Me 2 Sn(CH 2 I)2,Me 2 Sn( CH 2 Br)2,Me 2 PhSnCH 2 I,Ph 3 SnCH 2 I,Sn(CH 2 I)4,Ph 3 PbCH 2 I,Hg(CH 2 I)2和Hg(CH 2 Br)2。在大多数情况下,产品的产量非常好。
