Neue Additionsverbindungen von Germaniumtetrajodid mit organischen Basen

Four new stable addition compounds have been prepared by reaction of germanium tetraiodide with various tertiary amines. It is a case of adducts of 1:4 composition, in contrast to the 1:5 addition compound with triethylamine, which we have also prepared and investigated for comparison. Formation, properties, analytical results, conductometric measurements and spectral data (IR and¹H-NMR) of these adducts are described and discussed in terms of possible structural types and the nature of the bonding.
