26. 4 at room temperature was not observed at this cooling rate. The compound was obtained in the form of gray, platelike, brittle crystals with a metallic sheen. They are extraordinarily sensitive to air and moisture and decompose in air within a few seconds to give an orange-red powder (presumably GeO). A biting smell was noted.
