Some New Organotellurium(II) Molecular Adducts with Bidentate Ligands

Abstract

Thirty-six molecular adducts of the type RR´Te·L (where R = R´ = C₆H₅; R = R´ = (p-MeOC₆H₄); R=(p-MeOC₆H₄), R´ = (Me₂NC₆H₄); R = (p-EtOC₆H₄), R´ = Me₂NC₆H₄; R = R´ = C₆H₅CH₂; RR´ = (C₆H₉)₂ and L = bidentate Lewis base, i.e., 1,10, phenanthroline; 2,2&acute-bipyridine; bis(2-acetylpyrrole) phenylenediamine; bis(2-pyrrolecarboxylaldehyde) phenylenediamine; bis(2-pyridylcarboxylaldehyde) phenylenediamine and bis(2- naphthylaldehyde) phenylenediamine have been prepared and their structures have been established by elemental analysis, molar conductivity, IR and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.
