Aryltrimethylgermane cation radicals were generated by nanosecond transient absorption spectroscopy. Transient kinetics experiments show that the aryltrimethylgermane cation radicals react with added nucleophiles in reactions that are first-order in both the cation radicals and the nucleophiles. Preparative photo-oxidation experiments demonstrate that the intermediate cation radicals react with nucleophiles, resulting in aryl–Ge or Me–Ge nucleophile-assisted fragmentations. The aryltrimethylgermane cation radicals were found to react more slowly than analogous stannane cation radicals; however, loss of the thermodynamically disfavored aryl radicals remains competitive with methyl radical loss.
