Germyl isocyanate, isothiocyanate, and acetate have been prepared in almost quantitative yield by the interaction of germyl bromide with silver cyanate, thiocyanate, and acetate, respectively. Some of the physical properties of these new germyl derivatives are reported, and their thermal decompositions at moderate temperatures are described. The reaction of germyl bromide with silver oxide or carbonate produces germanium (II) hydride and water instead of digermoxane. Germyl bromide reacts with silver nitrite, forming germane, nitrous oxide, and nitric oxide as the only volatile products.
