Abstract

AbstractThe molecular structure of a novel hypervalent tellurium(IV) compound, 2,2′‐spirobi[4,7‐diisopropyl‐1,3,2‐benzodithiatellurole] (1), has been determined by a single crystal X‐ray diffraction study. The results represent the first crystal structural characterization of a hypervalent tellurium(IV), tellurane, with only four sulfur ligands. The tellurane has a distorted pseudo‐trigonal‐bipyramidal geometry with the axial sulfur atoms bending toward the equatorial ones. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
