The latest from the team, and the first for (Bluesky-less) Emeric Schubert 🥳
He uncovered unexpected Ge-H reactivity in the coordination sphere of Ni: dehydrocoupling of Ge-H w/ Si-H bonds, and some neat cycloaddition chem! 🧪 Very cool.

We report the high-yielding synthesis of a bis(hydridogermylene) complex of Ni0 (2). In contrast to known hydridotetrylene chemistry, this complex demonstrates a unique GeII–H/SiIV–H dehydrocoupling r...
