A highly reactive phosphagermacarbene (PGeHC) was synthesized by [3+2] cycloaddition between phosphagermaallene Tip( t Bu)GeCPMes* (Tip= 2,4,6‐triisopropylphenyl; Mes*=2,4,6‐tris‐ tert ‐butylphenyl) and diphenylketene. It forms complexes with [{Rh(CO) 2 Cl} 2 ] and Me 3 P, and undergoes a Wittig‐type reaction with diphenylketene (see scheme).
