Abstract: | Reaction of TeX4 (X = Cl or Br) with 2 mol. equiv. of OPR3 (R = Me, Et or Ph) gives the distorted octahedral cis-[TeX4(OPR3)2], while the bidentates Ph2P(E)(CH2)nP(E)Ph2 (E = O, n = 1 or 2; E = S, n = 1) give the six-coordinate [TeX4{Ph2P(E)(CH2)nP(E)Ph2}]. These species have been characterised spectroscopically (via 1H and 31P{1H} NMR and IR) and by crystallographic analyses on cis-[TeBr4(OPPh3)2], [TeCl4{Ph2P(O)CH2P(O)Ph2}] and [TeBr4{Ph2P(S)CH2P(S)Ph2}]. The TeX4 (X = Cl or Br) are reduced by Ph2P(S)(CH2)2P(S)Ph2 and Ph2P(Se)CH2P(Se)Ph2, giving the planar, four-coordinate Te(II) species [Te{Ph2P(S)(CH2)2P(S)Ph2}2]2+ (isolated as [(TeCl5)2{μ-Ph2P(S)(CH2)2P(S)Ph2}]2? and [TeBr6]2? salts) and [TeBr2{Ph2P(Se)CH2P(Se)Ph2}], all of which have also been identified crystallographically. On the basis of the structural data the Te-based lone pair associated with the Te(IV) species is assumed to occupy the 5s orbital, whereas in the Te(II) complexes the planar coordination is consistent with the two stereochemically active lone pairs occupying the axial sites. |
