Platinum/germanium complexes

Thus, several complexes with platinum-silicon or germanium bonds have been obtained ...

The complex [Cr(CO)5GeNR2 ] is obtained in 38% yield when bis(2,2,6,6-tetra-methylpiperidinato)germanium is combined with a chromium carbonyl derivative. Similarly, Ge[N(SiMe3)2] promotes the elimination of CO2 from a platinum precursor under thermal conditions in 64% yield ll... 

By and large, of the 86 naturally occurring elements in nature, some 20 or so are deemed to be essential as trace elements and approximately 10 are envisaged as toxic. Most of these essential trace elements are metals and are able to form simple ionic compounds or complex coordination compounds. However, some of the metallic elements such as cobalt, palladium, platinum, gold, mercury, germanium, tin, lead. 

The chemistry of silicon, germanium, and tin transition metal compounds has been the subject of several reviews (12, 180). Optically active silyl ligands have been introduced in a transition metal complex by reaction of chiral functional organosilanes. However chiral silyl ligands containing complexes are limited to a few metal centers we shall discuss in turn iron, cobalt, platinum, and manganese complexes.
