	We have demonstrated a unique reductive coupling of 4-iodophenyl isocyanide, facilitated by a perimidine-based N-heterocyclic germylene (NHGe), which yields a bis-spirogerma compound featuring simultaneous C-C and C-N bond formation. This reaction, which leads to the oxidation of germanium from +2 to +4, represents a significant departure from previously documented isocyanide-germylene interactions. The product exhibits extensive conjugation across its bicyclic C4Ge2N2 framework, conferring distinct photophysical properties, including prominent orange luminescence in both solution and solid states. The photophysical properties are supported by the TD-DFT calculations confirming an n -\&gt;pi* transition. The potential application of this compound in optoelectronic devices, particularly as a hole transport layer in PbS quantum dot solar cells, is also explored, with promising preliminary results.</p>
