Procedure

28.0 g (0.1 mol) of 2-methyl-3-(trichlorogermyl)butanoic acid was treated with 100 ml of thionyl chloride and then distilled under reduced pressure to obtain 27.0 g (yield: 90.4%) of 2-methyl-3-(trichlorogermyl)-butanoyl chloride as a light yellow fraction having a boiling point of 99° to 100° C./6 mmHg.
