Preparation and characterization of single crystals of tetrakis(4-(5,5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1,3-dioxan-2-yl)phenyl)germane
E-mail:,
A novel tetrakis(4-(5,5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1,3-dioxan-2- yl)phenyl)germane (2) was synthesized by the reaction of germanium(IV) tetrachloride with 4-(5,5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1,3-dioxan-2-yl)phenyllithium. Colorless plate-shaped single crystals obtained from recrystallization in ether were characterized by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The organogermanium compound was crystallized in a noncentrosymmetric nonpolar tetragonal space group, I-4, and classified as a porous molecular material owing to the presence of two types of distinct channels as a result of intermolecular hydrogen bonding. Compound 2 exhibits a differential gas adsorption property. The powder second-harmonic generating (SHG) measurements indicate that compound 2 shows a SHG efficiency 10 times greater than those of α-SiO2 and type-1 nonphase-matchable.
