Abstract: We consider the group $mathfrakX(G)$ obtained from $GastG$ by forcing each element $g$ in the first free factor to commute with the copy of $g$ in the second free factor. Deceptively complicated finitely presented groups arise from this construction: $mathfrakX(G)$ is finitely presented if and only if $G$ is finitely presented, but if $F$ is a non-abelian free group of finite rank then $mathfrakX(F)$ has a subgroup of finite index whose third homology is not finitely generated.
