Abstract
Ph3GeSiMe3 and Ph3GeSiMe2Fe(CO)2(η5-C5H5) have been synthesized and their crystal structures determined. The GeSi bond in iron (2.405(2) Å) is longer by 0.021 Å than in the simple germylsilane (2.384(1) Å). The significant shortening of the SiFe bond (2.328(1) Å) in the iron complex compared to that in the analogous Ph3SiSiMe2Fe(CO)2(η5-C5H5) (2.346(1) Å) and spectroscopic data indicate an enhanced SiFe interaction.
