Abstract

A single crystal X-ray diffraction study of the new compound [Rb([2.2.2]crypt)](2) [Rb([18]crown-6)][HGe9]center dot 4NH(3) revealed the presence of the first protonated nine-atom germanide cluster [HGe9](3-). It forms from Rb4Ge9 in liquid ammonia, so that [Ge-9](4-) can be considered as the base and [HGe9](3-) its formally conjugated acid. The H atom is attached to a germanium vertex atom of ...
