CAS 1067-42-1: Tetrabutylgermane

Description: Tetrabutylgermane is an organometallic compound with the formula Ge(C4H9)4. It is characterized by its four butyl groups attached to a central germanium atom, which contributes to its stability and solubility in organic solvents. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and has a relatively low viscosity. Tetrabutylgermane is known for its reactivity, particularly in organosilicon chemistry, where it can serve as a precursor for germanium-containing materials. It is also utilized in the synthesis of germanium-based compounds and as a reducing agent in various chemical reactions. The compound is sensitive to moisture and air, which can lead to hydrolysis and oxidation, respectively. Safety precautions are necessary when handling tetrabutylgermane, as it may pose health risks through inhalation or skin contact. Overall, its unique properties make it a valuable compound in both research and industrial applications involving germanium chemistry.
