[Chemical Properties]

yellow to gold flakes or powder
[Uses]

Reagent forms stable ionic adducts with carbenes.1
[Preparation]

From a germanium sulfide powder by adding excess 57% concentrated hydriodic acid, under stirring at 100 ℃ for the reaction, filtered while hot, the filtrate is slowly cooled system. It can also be made by adding germanium tetraiodide to distilled water and 57% concentrated hydriodic acid with stirring, adding 50% hypophosphite, boiling under reflux, crystallizing after reaction, washing with dilute hydriodic acid and drying.
