The mechanism of the oxide extraction reaction between singlet germylene carbene and its derivatives X2Ge=C： （X=H, F, Cl, CH3） and ethylene oxide has been investigated with B3LYP/6-311G（d,p） method. The results show that this kind of reaction has similar mechanism, the shift of 2p lone electron pair of O in ethylene oxide to the 2p unoccupied orbital of C in X2Ge=C： gives a p→p donor-acceptor bond, thereby leading to the formation of intermediate. As the p→p donor-acceptor bond continues to strengthen, that is the C-O bond continues to shorten, the intermediate generates product （P＋C2H4） via transition state. It is the substituent electronegativity that mainly affect the extraction reactions. When the substituent electronegativity is greater, the energy barrier is lower, and the reaction rate is greater.
