Abstract
Sodium telluride, Na2Te 1, is easily obtained by reaction of sodium wi th hexagonal tellurium in 1,2-dimethoxy-ethane in the presence of cata lytic amounts of naphthalene. Upon exposure to oxygen 1 reacts with me thanol forming [Na(CH3OH)(3)]Te-2(2) 2, which crystal structure was de termined. Compound 1, prepared in situ, can be conveniently converted into dialkyl tellurides, R(2)Te (R = C2H5, i-C3H7, CH2 = CH-CH2 3).
