Recent developments in the chemistry of low valent Group 14 hydrides

Abstract

This Perspective discusses the synthesis and reactivity of low valent Group 14 hydrides of germanium and tin. The use of hindered terphenyl ligands has facilitated the isolation of a number of unusual new main group hydride structural types (each predicted by computational work), and has culminated in the use of these species as precursors to new cluster archetypes.
