Abstract

Abstract Diphenyltellurium(IV) derivatives of the types Ph2Te{ACO}2 (1), Ph4Te2O{ACO}2 (2) and Ph6Te3O2{ACO} (3) (ACO = nitrosocarbamylcyanmethanide -ONC(CN)C(O)NH2) have been prepared. The IR spectroscopic data reveal that the ambidentate ligands are coordinated to the tellurium(IV) atom in a monodentate manner via the nitroso oxygen atom. The crystal and molecular structure of 3 has been determined from X-ray diffraction data (triclinic, space group P1̅ with a = 12.382(2), 6=13.100(2), c = 14.944(3) Å, a = 87.74( 1), β = 85.04(2), 7 = 66.29( 1)°, V = 2211.0 A , Z = 2, R = 0.040). The structure is made up of unsymmetric molecules, in which the tellurium atoms are linked by oxo bridges to form chains Te-O-Te-O-Te (d(Te-O) ca. 1.94-2.09 A). The Te-0 (nitroso group) bond lengths are in the range 2.33 - 2.36 Å
