CAS 14165-55-0: Germanium(IV)ethoxide
Description:Germanium(IV) ethoxide, with the CAS number 14165-55-0, is an organometallic compound characterized by the presence of germanium in its +4 oxidation state, coordinated with ethoxide groups. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is known for its reactivity, particularly in hydrolysis reactions where it can form germanium dioxide and ethanol upon contact with moisture. This compound is soluble in organic solvents, making it useful in various applications, including as a precursor in the synthesis of germanium-based materials and in the production of thin films for electronic devices. Germanium(IV) ethoxide is sensitive to air and moisture, necessitating careful handling and storage under inert conditions to prevent degradation. Its properties, such as boiling point and density, are influenced by the presence of the ethoxide groups, which contribute to its overall stability and reactivity profile. As with many organometallic compounds, safety precautions should be observed due to potential toxicity and flammability.
