Reduction of the bulky organogermanium(II) halides Ge(Cl){CH(SiMe3)2} and Ge(Cl)C6H3-2,6-Mes2 (the former in the presence of GeCl2·(dioxane)) afforded the clusters Ge5R4 (R = CH(SiMe3)2 (1), C6H3-2,6-Mes2 (2)), which have an unsubstituted germanium atom capping a butterfly Ge4R4 array. The bonding involves six two-center−two-electron Ge−Ge bonds and a lone pair at the unsubstituted germanium as well as nonbonded electron density at two of the substituted germaniums that indicates possible biradical character.
