title: A divalent germanium complex of calix[5]arene.
abstract: The reaction of the germylene Ge[N(SiMe(3))(2)](2) with calix[5]arene yields the first example of a group 14 calix[5]arene complex. The crystal structure of this material has been obtained and contains two calix[5]arene macrocycles held together by a Ge(2)O(2) rhombus.
