Facile palladium-catalyzed hydrogermylation polymerization of a dihydrogermane with diynes affording light-emissive germylene-divinylene polymers
Hydrogermylation polymerization of diphenylgermane with aliphatic and aromatic diynes smoothly proceeded in the presence of Pd-PCy3 (Cy = cyclohexyl) catalysts to give new germylene-divinylene polymers in high yields.
