Abstract
The present work has demonstrated that open-shell tetrylidyne complexes featuring a tetrel-centered unpaired electron can be obtained by one-electron reduction of corresponding closed-shell tetrylidyne complexes. Examples included the first germylidyne radical anion salt K(THF)3[Tp′(CO)2MoGe(C6H3-2,6-Mes2)] (18-Mo) and the neutral stannylidyne radical trans-[H(dmpe)2MnSn(C6H3-2,6-Mes2)] (43).
