Conclusions
-
1.
2-Triphenylsilyl-4-tert-butyl-6-trimethylgermylphenol was obtained, which when oxidized with potassium ferricyanide in alkaline medium, and also when heated (200°), undergoes rearrangement with a migration of the (CH3)3Ge group from the ring to the hydroxyl oxygen.
-
2.
The stability is increased when the SiMe3 group in a mixed phenol that contains both Si and Ge is replaced by SiPh3.
-
3.
The migration ability of the groups in phenoxyl radicals increases in the order: SiPh3 < SiMe3 < GeMe3.
