title: Cationic metallogermylene and dicationic dimetallodigermenes: synthesis by chloride abstraction from N-heterocyclic carbene-stabilized chlorometallogermylenes.
abstract: Reaction of NHC-stabilized dichlorogermylenes (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene) with an anionic tungsten complex produced NHC-stabilized chlorometallogermylenes. Subsequent chloride abstraction from the products with NaBAr4 (Ar = 3,5-(CF3)2C6H3) gave a cationic metallogermylene or dicationic dimetallodigermenes.
