Chemistry:Trichlorogermanate
From HandWiki
Trichlorogermanate is the inorganic anion with the formula GeCl−
3. It is the chloride adduct of germanium dichloride:
- GeCl
2 + Cl−
→ GeCl−
3
The anion can be isolated as a quaternary ammonium salt.[1] The anion is similar to trichlorostannate (SnCl−
3).
The anion is pyramidal according to X-ray crystallography with Cl-Ge-Cl angle of about 95° and Ge-Cl distance of 232 pm.[2]
