Abstract
The review describes the coordination chemistry of periodate [IO 6H 5− n ] n− and tellurate [TeO 6H 6− n ] n− ligands with both main group and transition metal centres. Relevant chemistry of periodic and telluric acids and their salts are reviewed, followed by discussion of the application of structural (single-crystal X-ray diffraction, PXRD, EXAFS) and spectroscopic (vibrational, UV-visible, multinuclear NMR) techniques to study their complexes. The known complexes of these anions with p-block metals, lanthanides and actinides, and d-block metals are systematically described, and the article concludes with an overview of the field and proposals for further studies.
