Abstract:Reactions of 2,6‐dipicolinoylbis(N,N‐diethylthiourea) (H2LEt) with common tellurium(IV) starting materials such as PhTeBr3 or TeBr4 yield various tellurium(IV) and tellurium(II) compounds depending on the conditions applied. Equimolar amounts of H2LEt and PhTeBr3 give the 1:1 complex [PhTeIVBr3(H2LEt)], while with an excess of H2LEt, the tellurium compound is partially reduced and a {PhTeII}+ building block coordinates to both sulfur atoms of H2LEt under formation of the ion pair [PhTeII(H2LEt)][PhTeIVBr4].
